« SPRING AWAKENING, Monday night - Post-Tonys Performance | Main | 'PIRATES' at PAPER MILL »

THIS WEEK IN THEATERGOING

If you were at the Tonys and have the commemorative Playbill, turn to ten pages from the back. I wrote a feature article interviewing the Tonys talent coordinator. It wasn't listed in the table of contents.

I'm hardly surprised by the COMPANY closing notice. Too bad it didn't make any $$$. Couldn't be good for the future of Sondheim revivals on Broadway, but SUNDAY is still set for Roundabout next season.

Paper Mill's new season announcement is identical to that which they introduced two months ago except for HAPPY DAYS, in lieu of FRANKENSTEIN. I saw a reading of the HAPPY DAYS musical two years ago. It was quite bad, but I understand it's been reworked extensively, including what is essentially a whole new plot.

Following last night's unexpected tryst back to SPRING AWAKENING, here is the rest of my tentative theatergoing schedule:

Tuesday - Intimate Exchanges, Trip No. 5 for me to this eight-part series
Wednesday - Pirates at Paper Mill Playhouse
Thursday - Back to Les Miz, now with Lea Salonga
Friday - It's a Bird Its a Plane Its Superman at the York's Musicals in Mufti series
Sat afternoon - Butcher of Baraboo at Second Stage Uptown
Sat night - Euridyce at Second Stage
Sun afternoon - Falsettoland at National Asian American Theater Festival
Sun night - East Village Fragments
