Smash may be canceled, but Debra Messing will still be hanging out in the theater district. Come January, she’ll make her Broadway debut in the world premiere play Outside Mullingar, a romantic comedy from writer John Patrick Shanley and director Doug Hughes, the Tony-winning team behind Doubt. In the limited 11-week engagement, Messing will star opposite Brian F. O’Byrne, a Tony winner for Frozen whose four additional nominations include Doubt. They’ll play two introverted, eccentric neighbors in rural Ireland. He’s shy and prefers cattle to humans, and she’s determined to have him — even if his...

A 130-year-old play might seem creaky when considering the men are in top hats, the women are in long dresses, and there is an overall stiffer manner.
But Henrik Ibsen's "An Enemy of the People," at the Manhattan Theatre Club's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre, holds up just fine in director Doug Hughes' capable hands.
If only it weren't so timely.
The play asks important questions about free speech, environmental disasters and the rich expecting the poor to suffer an undue tax burden. Considering recent events such as the Bp disaster, Wall Street greed and the one percent, then none of it seems all that old.
In fact it's pretty timeless.
And scary. Unless those involved are armed, little is scarier than a mob. When people lose critical thinking abilities and just start chanting, when they repeat without thinking and close in on someone, anything can happen. And it is rarely good.

A new Broadway season is about to begin and, with it, new life has been brought to my posts. After over 900 posts, 50 comments, over 325 Tony nominees and over 75 winners in the two-and-a-half years I blogged independently about the Tony Awards, I am proud to be joining the team at ScottFeinberg.com.
Without any further ado, I would like to begin with a look ahead at the Broadway shows that will be coming up this year. I have made this list as comprehensive as I could given what information is available but, as is often the case, there is much more data available right now about the fall season (September through the winter holidays) than the spring season (Christmas through the Tony Awards in June) on Broadway. I will update this post with more details as information becomes available.
The list of shows we expect to see this year,...
