My fall quarter at SCAD just ended last week and now I'm off until the beginning of January for my winter break. One of the classes I took as a dramatic writing major was playwriting and I got to thinking about some of my favorite plays that I would love to share with people and hopefully they can experience for themselves one day. You can also add these to your Christmas wish list if you so desire.

As BroadwayWorld previously reported, the 2019 Tony-nominated revival of Pulitzer Prize winner Lanford Wilson's Burn This will play its final performance today, July 14, at Broadway's Hudson Theatre (141 West 44th Street).

Only 8 performances left to experience the 2019 Tony-nominated revival of Pulitzer Prize winner Lanford Wilson's BURN THIS.

Kerri Russell was a guest on Wednesday's episode of Live With Kelly and Ryan to talk about starring on Broadway in Burn This. During the interview, Russell talks about the experience of doing Broadway for the first time.

Adam Driver was a guest on Monday morning's episode of 'Good Morning America' to talk about starring on Broadway in Burn This. Driver talks to GMA host Lara Spencer about his Tony-nominated performance in the play, and he also talks about his Arts in the Armed Forces program, which aims to bring American theatre to active duty service members.

Keri Russell was a guest on last night's episode of 'Late Night with Seth Meyers' to talk about starring in 'Burn This.' During the interview, Russell tells Meyers that she still isn't used to being on stage every night. She says, ' I have immense respect for people who do it, and a beer definitely helps.'

The first revival of Pulitzer Prize Winner Lanford Wilson's Burn This officially opened just last night, April 16, at the Hudson Theatre. Stars Academy Award Nominee and three-time Emmy Award Nominee Adam Driver (Pale), Golden Globe Award Winner and Emmy Award Nominee Keri Russell (Anna), Tony Award Nominee David Furr (Burton) and Tony Award Nominee Brandon Uranowitz (Larry) celebrated the special occasion on Monday, and we're taking you inside the big night below!

Good morning, BroadwayWorld! First, we'd like to wish a happy opening to Hadestown, which officially opens tonight at the Walter Kerr Theatre!

The phrase 'toxic masculinity' wasn't exactly in the vernacular in 1987, when Circle Rep's buzz-producing run of Lanford Wilson's Burn This moved uptown to Broadway. So perhaps coked-up, homophobic, violently aggressive, possessive bullies were considered sexier than they are now.
