☆ ‘Lempicka’ to End Broadway Run a Month After Opening
  + stars: | 2024-05-02 | by ( Michael Paulson | More About Michael Paulson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
“Lempicka,” a new musical about an artistically and sexually adventurous painter, announced Thursday evening that it would close on May 19, just a month after opening. This is the first show to fall after this year’s Tony nominations were announced on Tuesday. “Lempicka” scored three nods — for the actresses Eden Espinosa and Amber Iman, as well as for scenic design — but was shut out of the best musical category. It really needed a boost, because its grosses have been anemic — last week it grossed $288,102, which is unsustainably low for a Broadway musical. The show, which explores the life of the 20th-century painter Tamara de Lempicka, was written by Carson Kreitzer and Matt Gould and directed by Rachel Chavkin.

☆ A Crisis in America’s Theaters Leaves Prestigious Stages Dark
  + stars: | 2023-07-23 | by ( Michael Paulson | More About Michael Paulson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Fewer productions. Fewer performances. Cal Shakes, a Bay Area favorite that staged Shakespeare in an outdoor amphitheater, is producing no shows this year. The Williamstown Theater Festival, known for its star-studded summer shows, has no fully staged productions at its Western Massachusetts home this season. Philadelphia’s Arden Theater Company expects to give 363 performances next season, down from 503 performances the season before the pandemic.

☆ Opinion | American Theater Is Collapsing. The Federal Government Must Save It.
  + stars: | 2023-07-19 | by ( Isaac Butler | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
The American theater is on the verge of collapse. The Humana Festival of New American Plays, a vital launching pad for such great playwrights as Lynn Nottage and Will Eno over the past four decades, was canceled this year. This season the Williamstown Theater Festival, one of our most important summer festivals, will consist of only one fully produced work, alongside an anemic offering of staged readings. The Lookingglass, a major anchor of Chicago’s theater scene, is halting production for the year. Nonprofit theaters are where many recent hits — including “A Strange Loop” and “Hamilton,” both of which won Pulitzer Prizes — started out.
