If Evita comes to Broadway, don't expect a repeat of the outdoor "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" that wowed them in the West End. Some true words from Andrew Lloyd Webber: "We can’t do that in New York. I mean, something awful could happen. We have gun laws in Britain.” deadline.com/2026/03/evit...

'Evita' On Broadway? Maybe, But Not With Outdoor Balcony Scene

Andrew Lloyd Webber isn't ruling out a Broadway transfer of the hit London Evita revival, but he's drawing the line at an outdoor balcony scene.

Trump: "The people are demanding it. Every time I go out -- 'Save America, sir! Save America Act! We want the Save America Act, sir!' -- that's all they talk about. They don't talk about housing. They don't talk about anything. That's what they talk about."

Trump is completely flailing. He didn't anticipate the economic blowback and now he's trying to undo the past 10 days and contain the damage.

If Iran does anything that stops the flow of Oil within the Strait of Hormuz, they will be hit by the United States of America TWENTY TIMES HARDER than they have been hit thus far. Additionally, we will take out easily destroyable targets that will make it virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back, as a Nation, again — Death, Fire, and Fury will reign upon them — But I hope, and pray, that it does not happen! This is a gift from the United States of America to China, and all of those Nations that heavily use the Hormuz Strait. Hopefully, it is a gesture that will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Sometimes when people say, "That'll be the first line of his obituary," they're right. Alexander Butterfield told a single crucial truth, and there it is, in the first sentence, 53 years later. Will any Trumper be memorialized for even one honest moment? I doubt it. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/u...

You guys really don't have to do the usual Bluesky "It'll never happen" thing with me. What I'm predicting is not an expression of optimism.

I think this war could destroy his presidency--I've never felt this about any other issue. He and his gang of nihilist greedhead idiots have finally gotten themselves into something they can't get out of. But the cost will, on every level, be staggering.

He gave me a long, fascinating, insightful interview when I was researching the Mike Nichols bio, most of which was not about Mike. He struck me as someone who had negotiated his transition out of the spotlight with rare poise. I'll try to pull a transcript together and post it. He will be missed.

I am so sorry to read about the passing of Corey Parker, who will be remembered by folks my age as Melissa's hot, sweet boyfriend Lee on thirtysomething. Corey worked on Biloxi Blues with Mike Nichols and later became an acting teacher and coach. He was a serious, thoughtful, reflective man. >

The Birdcage opened thirty years ago today, so in its honor, I want to share one of my favorite stories about Mike Nichols that didn't make it into my biography. This is from an interview I did with Nathan Lane.

It was going on one, two in the morning, and we were shooting what I felt was an important scene for me, when he makes an attempt to be quote-unquote straight, in a suit, and at the end of it he gets emotional and locks himself in the other room. And I felt like, I’m not getting what I want—I’m not happy with it. Mike was happy with it. He called me the next day and said, “I know you weren’t happy with the scene last night. Believe me, we wouldn’t have gone home if I had felt we weren’t getting it.” And then he sort of became my psychiatrist and said, “You find it difficult to be happy, don’t you? You find it difficult to enjoy things.” And I said, “Well, sometimes. Last night was about feeling too tired and not feeling I was reaching what I needed to reach for the scene.” He talked to me then about when he was making, I don’t know whether it was Virginia Woolf or The Graduate. He said, “I didn’t enjoy it for a second. I was worried about so many things.” And then he said, “You know, this is never going to happen again quite this way. You should try to allow yourself to enjoy this more. Take a minute a day, and then add a minute the next day, and another minute. Pretty soon, you’ll have hours of happiness.”

FWIW I think the movie (which I love) pretty much gives you what you need along the way. You might be inspired to do some research after you see it, but it's not like one of those things where you need to study the Habsburg family tree before the play starts or you'll miss all the jokes.

If you're a powerful creative person, a moment will always arrive when you can do something a little brave that will help people, or refuse to. The book I'm working on right now is in part a history of who did what. All I'll say about this is, it never gets forgotten. deadline.com/2026/03/pixa...

I have seen those! I laughed to see that one opera company is using "TIMOTHEE" as a discount code.

In any event, he should have an interesting run on the red carpet next weekend!

Mark Harris@markharris.bsky.socialMar 7(source)

I honestly don't think it's malice--in the middle, he sort of shakes his head at himself, laughing, and says, "I just take shots for no reason." Okay, but if you KNOW that, don't DO that! Also (bending over backwards to be fair): Spending three months trying to win an award is absurd. For anyone.

We could all have a pretty great Tribute to Screenwriters Who Just Died triple-feature weekend and watch Bullitt, The Thomas Crown Affair, and The Candidate. Nobody would regret a minute of it. RIP Alan Trustman and Jeremy Larner.
