pls vote golden pig cuz i need dan’s reaction to it
First things first, happy Pride Month, everyone! On this tour, I get to look out into the most stunningly beautiful, brilliant crowds of people who are living their authentic lives. They are loving who they want to love, they are identifying how they identify, and allies who get to support them in and celebrate them in that. It’s the most beautiful experience for me to look out into the crowds on this tour, I’m looking out tonight, I’m seeing so many incredible individuals who are living authentically and beautifully and this is a safe space for you. This is a celebratory space for you and one of the things that makes me feel so prideful is getting to be with you and watching you interact with each other, being so loving and so thoughtful and so caring and so being with you during pride month, getting to sing the words to ‘You Need To Calm Down’ where there are lyrics like “can you just not step on his gown?” or “shade never made anybody less gay”, and you guys are screaming those lyrics in such solidarity, in such support of one another, in such encouraging, beautiful acceptance and peace and safety and I wish that every place was safe and beautiful for people in the lgbtq community, I really wish that. Cause we can’t talk about pride month without talking about pain. Right now, and recently and in the recent years there have been so many harmful pieces of legislation that have put people in the lgbtq community at risk. It’s painful for everyone, every ally, every loved one, every person in these communities and thats why I’m always posting this is when the midterms are, this is when these important key primaries are, cause we can support as much as we want during pride month, but if we’re not doing our research on these elected officials, are they advocates? are they allies? are they protectors of equality? Do I want to vote for them? I love you guys so much. Happy Pride month, I just adore you. I really do.

Merrily We Roll Along Revival Will Hit Broadway in 2023
Daniel Radcliffe, Jonathan Groff, and Lindsay Mendez star in the sold-out Sondheim revival, currently playing New York Theatre Workshop Off-Broadway.
Turns out we’re getting a Sondheim musical on Broadway in fall 2023 after all! The current Off-Broadway revival of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth‘s Merrily We Roll Along, currently playing a sold-out run at New York Theatre Workshop through January 22 (read reviews here), will make the jump to Broadway in fall 2023, with dates and a theatre to be announced. The production will be the musical’s first on Broadway since its brief 1981 original run.
The production’s stars are staying with the production. Daniel Radcliffe will star as Charley Kringas, with Jonathan Groff as Franklin Shepard, Lindsay Mendez as Mary Flynn, Krystal Joy Brown as Gussie Carnegie, Katie Rose Clarke as Beth Shepard, and Reg Rogers as Joe Josephson. Additional casting is to be announced.
Maria Friedman will again direct, with choreography by Tim Jackson and orchestrations by Jonathan Tunick. Additional creative team members will be revealed in the coming months.
With a book by Furth, adapted from the George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart play of the same name; and a score by Sondheim, the musical tracks the lives of three friends navigating the entertainment industry over three decades—in reverse chronological order. Sondheim’s score includes such songs as "Old Friends,“ "Now You Know,” “Franklin Shepard, Inc.,” “Good Thing Going,” and “Not a Day Goes By.”
The work was not a success on its first Broadway outing, running just 16 performances and ending the string of genre-defining collaborations between Sondheim and director Hal Prince. Together with the popularity of the show’s original Broadway cast album, a revised version of the show has transformed the work into a cult favorite. This current production was originally staged at London’s Menier Chocolate Factory in 2012 and later transferred to the West End, where it won an Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival. Huntington Theatre in Boston gave the staging its North American premiere in 2017.
Information on early access to tickets will be available at MerrilyOnBroadway.com.
