Industry Pro Newsletter: Sardi's Sold, Broadway Booms & Phantom Makes History in Sydney

This week's theater news spans the globe, from a massive outdoor Phantom of the Opera making history on Sydney Harbour to Shakespeare's birthday celebrations in Chicago, a landmark West End awards night in London, and a new home for one of New York's most celebrated Off-Broadway companies. Closer to home, Broadway is reporting record-breaking grosses and attendance even as international tourism dips, while one of the Theatre District's most beloved institutions — Sardi's — prepares for a temporary farewell as it changes hands. And as the world marked World Theatre Day on March 27, the stories this week serve as a fitting reminder of just how alive and far-reaching the art form remains.

Photos: On the Red Carpet for THE 24 HOUR MUSICALS

Hosted by The Voice of the Mets Colin Cosell, The 24 Hour Musicals were just held yesterday, June 16, at the Lynn F. Angelson Theatre. This intensive theatrical endeavor lets artists write, rehearse and perform four new musicals in just 24 hours. Check out photos from inside the big night!  

Review: THE PERFECT MATE Is Fantastic, and Fantastical, at Pittsburgh CLO

CLO's Spark program has a large-sized hit with the latest small-scale musical it commissioned. As a musical writer, let me just say: it's TOUGH to launch a new musical. The best thing you can do is have a company commission a show from you based on your pitch, otherwise you're going to have a long, difficult but hopefully rewarding journey as an indie theatre creator. (Ask me how I know!)
