Dharon E. Jones, making his Broadway debut, will succeed actor Ben Cook in the role of 'Riff' in the new Broadway production of West Side Story, producers Scott Rudin/Barry Diller/David Geffen announced today.

To this very frequent theatre-goer, the most exciting and gratifying development on New York stages since 2010 has been the growing number of productions that, before hitting it big on Broadway, graced the stages of the city's non-profit Off-Broadway companies.

Producers Scott Rudin / Barry Diller / David Geffen announced today that the Broadway return of the Jerome Robbins / Arthur Laurents / Leonard Bernstein / Stephen Sondheim musical, West Side Story, has once again broken the all-time Broadway Theatre house record for a single week, with a gross of $1,807,025.94. In 7 performances the previous week, West Side Story broke the record (with a gross of $1,497,319) held by Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella ($1,479,889.97, established on 12/29/13, for an 8-performance week).

It Chapter Two has made $38.1M on its opening day, which sets it up for a $92M opening weekend, according to Deadline. The film was originally projected to bring in over $100M.

It: Chapter 2 opened on Thursday making $10.5 million at the box office, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Sure, it's a bit early in the game, but what might turn out to be the funniest scene to hit New York stages in this young theatre season occurs at the end of the first act in Jonathan Spector's sharp and empathetic social commentary, EUREKA DAY.

It: Chapter Two is Muschietti's follow-up to 2017's critically acclaimed and massive worldwide box office hit 'IT,' which grossed over $700 million globally. Both redefining and transcending the genre, 'IT' became part of the cultural zeitgeist as well as the highest-grossing horror film of all time.
