Brand New Year

Everyone says they can’t believe it is 2010 already here.  I can’t believe it hasn’t come sooner.  Last year seemed to fly by so quickly, and I have a great feeling that this is the year for live entertainment to truly impress, enrich, and educate all of us.  I, of course saw several beautiful and charming films this holiday season including Precious, Avator, and Up in the Air.  But I do believe that it will be the power of live events that will really inspire people to pursue their own creative endeavors.  Broadway is having and will continue to have a big year.  Fela! is going strong, as are our friends over at Next to Normal and Rock of Ages.  With revivals like A View From the Bridge, Present Laughter, The Miracle Worker, and Promises Promises all opening soon or fairly soon, we have a lot to look forward to. Also Sondheim on Sondheim, Spider-Man, and Love Never Dies (the new Phantom of the Opera sequel) in the musical mix throughout the year make us think about how diverse Theater really can be.  I’m especially excited to work on a great new Off-Broadway show called Brother Can You Spare a Dime.  It’s a fantastic and beautiful musical review about the Great Depression and the hopes and struggles that permeated the entire country and the world.  We are hoping that this 2010 brings you a year where you can commiserate with these notions, while growing more and more successful as the economy grows and grows, which we know it will.  Take a look back at our new website (great job Josh!) as we have some new exciting projects and the return of some critically acclaimed ones as well.
