Last night, director Adam Brace’s work on @AlexEdelman's “Just For Us” opened to acclaim on Broadway. Unfortunately Adam passed away in the spring, but here's a feature on him by @MrLukowski in @TheStage from last December. thestage.co.uk/big-interview…

True victory would be for Elon to completely destroy Twitter and for all social media to self-destruct so that people could slowly become human beings again.

Im not sure if it’s even possible today but true victory for @elonmusk would be restoring the wonder and excitement of the Wild West internet on the boards and early social media. It was the most fun I ever had online and I miss it desperately

"The story of Trump's rise to power is the story of a buried US history -- buried because powerful people liked it that way. It was visible without being seen, influential without being named, ubiquitous without being overt." Pre-order my new book here: us.macmillan.com/books/97812…

Economist Kenneth Rogoff and I wrote an op-Ed about the Creative Economy and how vital it is to our nation’s economic and social well-being. Keep our creative culture alive now, recovery will be faster and more restorative.

Replying to @AlanHenry @BeetlejuiceBway
Loved it. I LOVED IT. Holy Shit. It took a great film and made it even richer. Scott/Anthony’s book is so hilarious, and story expanding. I laughed uncontrollably and still got choked up for Lydia. Timbers is a genius. Brightman, Caruso are perfect. Its the only show in town.
