Last week, theatergoers in London had a terrifying experience when the ceiling of the Apollo Theater came crashing down during the performance of “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.” Right before the first intermission, audience members heard crackling noises before parts of the ceiling fell, taking out lighting pictures and part of […]
Today, I was called to the front lines to talk about who I would put for Theatre Royalty of the many amazing Theatre Adults from across the world! Without further ado….
