There is only one element of which film and television cannot rob the theater: the closeness of the living organism. -Grotowski

In 2014, there were 620,000 marijuana possession arrests. That’s one every minute.

From now on I'm calling him Chef @andersoncooper cause he's roasting these candidates good. Absolutely savage. #DemDebate

My real question from @GwydionS #dctheater parity poll is: why we don't have @WomensVoicesDC every year? https://t.co/2Kn9cYOpob

[Alan Katz @dcdramaturg]

Is this you @KeithHamCobb ?

[Alan Katz @dcdramaturg]

@EpistolaryBrown Peer Gynt from Ibsen sounds like it's right. But there's a reason it's called "The Last Play in Verse" #justantiherothings

[Meaghan Brown @EpistolaryBrown]

@dcdramaturg We're using "Romance Play" in the chivalric sense, not the kissy-kissy-bang-bang sense. (#NotInTheScopeNotes)

[Alan Katz @dcdramaturg]

@EpistolaryBrown prelude to a kiss, can't take it with you, &c. More Rom Com than Romance for you?

[Alan Katz @dcdramaturg]

@EpistolaryBrown define "modern romance play" Like 20th century or the last 300 years?

My review of THE FIX @sigtheatre "It puts the nasty in dynasty," but in a good way + @MarkHEvans voice & abs are WOW http://t.co/UjmnArlkXR
