☆ ‘Water for Elephants’ Brings the Circus to Broadway
  + stars: | 2024-02-25 | by ( Alexis Soloski | Peter Fisher | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
At the sound of a gunshot, a performer, wreathed in white silks, tumbles from the ceiling. His body somersaults, over and over, faster and faster, until it hangs suspended, just above the stage floor. This scene, in the first act of “Water for Elephants,” a new musical that begins previews Feb. 24 at the Imperial Theater, portrays the death of an injured horse. And it captures the singular methods of the show — a synthesis of theater and circus, bedazzled for a Broadway audience. “In musicals, you talk until you have to sing and you sing until you have to dance,” Jessica Stone, the director of “Water for Elephants,” explained.

☆ Saying Goodbye to the Dead. (Again.)
  + stars: | 2023-07-14 | by ( Marc Tracy | Peter Fisher | More About Marc Tracy | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The first time Albie Cullen said goodbye to the Grateful Dead was on Aug. 9, 1995. A co-worker told Cullen, an attorney for a Boston-area music label, that Jerry Garcia, the Dead’s iconic lead guitarist, had died that day. The Grateful Dead had replaced departed members before, but this was different. With his rootsy tenor, Santa-gone-gray beard and unmistakable plucking, Garcia had defined a touring juggernaut and its vibrant subculture, which had become synonymous with the ’60s. The band’s four surviving original members agreed they would never use the name “Grateful Dead” without Garcia.

When Jeff Gennette joined Macy’s Inc.’s management training program in 1983, he had a big decision to make. Should he tell his colleagues he was gay? Mr. Gennette had come out in college at Stanford University, where he majored in English. But being openly gay in American corporations at that time was risky, he said. “So it was a scary time to be a gay person and be out and open.”
