A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since.

Peter Hujar's portrait of Candy Darling's deathbed is so widely-shared but it really is just the most remarkable photo, tremendous amount of will and life-force on display, like a still from the most expensive Hollywood tearjerker. A self-made icon on the cusp of eternity.

Happy WICKED Weekend! 🧙

So blessed to have been a part of the WICKED fam. Some people get the Gershwin Theatre—some get Murray Bartlett’s shower. Who’s to say which left a more lasting impact? Hold space for THAT #lookinghbo
