Is the "he" here SJH? I've wondered about him as he is the only OBC member who left the show with no acknowledgement. Every member of the ensemble got a solo bow at their last performance but

Of course they're more diverse that the rest of Bway (with the exception of Hamilton). Kind of a low bar there. They were still well over 50% white."

This is kind of an inane argument. You're jumping on that concern of the cast, and barely recognizing that the cast felt comfor

Yes, that certainly seems to be the message Malloy was hoping to deliver."

Honestly though, can you refute any of it? Seemed pretty straight forward to me. His comments seemed mild compared to where he could have gon

As is the cast of Groundhog Day. And Bandstand.  And Sweat. And Indecent.  It’s theater. It happens.

 

Lord, the amount of hand wringing over the closing of a show which failed to re
