They were the brand name on every woman's lips. Goodman Theatre announces it will produce the world premiere of War Paint, a new musical that charts the ascent and arch-rivalry of cosmetics entrepreneurs Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden. Patti LuPone, who 'generates more raw excitement than any other performer on Broadway' (The New York Times), and Christine Ebersole, a 'first-class, revitalizing master of period style' (The New York Times), respectively star as Rubinstein and Arden, the brilliant innovators with humble roots who shrewdly navigated the 1930s male-dominated business world to forever change the business of beauty. Directed by Michael Greif (Rent, Next to Normal, If/Then, Grey Gardens), War Paint reunites Scott Frankel and Michael Korie-the acclaimed composer and lyricist team of Grey Gardens and Far From Heaven-with Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Doug Wright (Grey Gardens, I Am My Own Wife, The Little Mermaid). The musical is inspired by the book, War Paint, by Lindy Woodhead and the documentary film, The Powder & the Glory, by Ann Carol Grossman and Arnie Reisman.

On the next episode of NBC's HEROES REBORN titled "Sundae, Bloody Sundae", he's the future's greatest hope, but will the truth about Tommy's past threaten those closest to him? And when the timeline is altered, who can they trust?
Confusing time jumps and cheesy one-liners aside, last week's episode of HEROES REBORN was at least eye-opening and informative, if not even slightly intriguing! Sure, the whole Tommy and Malina being twins tasked to save the future could've been seen from a mile away if you looked hard enough, but them being the Cheerleader's kids? That I didn't see coming.
Mostly because there's not much of an age difference between them all. Thanks, time travel.
