❤️“Some have said in the past, ‘You should be a Rabbi.’ I am. The theatre is my pulpit — to illuminate joy, love, compassion, delight and empathy for the human condition.”

“I want them to fall in love with good theater art — good theater art, not just ‘doing a show.’ I never feel like I’m doing ‘a show.’ It has to have some deeper meaning and cover more of the world than ‘show’ does. The best of theater explores all those things in human nature, and I try to bring them to be.”

RIP Gerald Freedman ❤️

Theater legend Gerald Freedman, artistic director of Great Lakes Theater from 1985 to 1997, died in home hospice care March 17 in Winston-Salem, NC. He was 92.

“To say that the theatre is flourishing, that it’s dying, that it’s out of date, are splendid little soundbites for professors or journalists to use. The one truth is that theatre is a living experience. As long as it’s alive, it’s alive. It fluctuates and changes. If we work in that form or write about it, we have a responsibility to not let the flame go out.”

The 65th Evening Standard Theatre Awards celebrated a vintage year on the London stage, with a peerless crop of winners including Dame Maggie Smith, Andrew Scott and Anne-Marie Duff.
