Music Taylor Swift: Cats I’m trying to remember if I’ve seen Cats. I don’t think I have. If I ever did it was on a school field trip when I was a kid and I used to always fall asleep on field trips because I stayed up too late the night By Lainey • Jul 20, 2018 10:13 am

TV Updates Saw Him First™ - Brandon Victor Dixon Edition Really, the title should read ‘Jesus Christ Superstar Edition’. I love that so many people loved what’s being called the most successful live musical ever – Matt Zoller Seitz called it ‘a minor miracle’.

Theatre Nerd Chris Evans: the next phase Chris Evans is making his Broadway debut in a revival of Kenneth Lonergan’s Lobby Hero (wearing a moustache, and a lot of people are into their feelings about this), and on the precipice of opening night, he has a big new profile in the New York Times.
