I got to work with @gordonbcox more closely on the Broadway and Tony Awards circuit, which was a pleasure. His reviews are always insightful and make me miss the east coast (i need Merrily Go Round in my bloodstream). Still, I'm a sucker for snubs and surprises following a jaw-dropping ceremony.

I started my newsletter Jaques to answer some of my most urgent questions about theater, among them: WTF is panto???
It's bonkers, it's big business -- and it turns out it's low-key everywhere. Read all about it:

With thanks to @PalladiumPanto, @NottmPlayhouse, @simonsladen, @ThePantoProject and everyone else who helped me solve the mysteries of panto.

New issue of JAQUES, my newsletter about international theater, just dropped and it's all about the booming South Korean musical market—and the industry-wide efforts to make a musical that has a global reach of BTS, Squid Game and Parasite.

I am loving this lineup and I can't wait to talk to all these delightful Broadway stars on the high seas. Miami to Key West to Grand Cayman, March 13-18, 2024. Join us on the @broadway_cruise!

Possibly my favorite part of this news is the fact that the musical's major characters includes an associate director and an acting coach.

Thrilled to be returning to #thebroadwaycruise for year 2. Look at this lineup!
Equally excited that we’ll be bypassing Montego Bay due to Jamaica’s record on LGBTQ rights. Instead it’s Key West and Grand Cayman for us, and you don’t want to miss it 🎭🛳️

It made me joyful, angry, embarrassed, prideful, frustrated, inspired...Just everything. A Strange Loop has and gives everything.
With that said, here's @GCoxVariety's profile of @TheLivingMJ from @variety's Pride Issue.
