Congratulations to Eugene Lee!

Eugene_lee_2 Trinity Rep Resident Designer Eugene Lee will be inducted into the Theater Hall of Fame at the Gershwin Theatre on January 29th, 2007! He will be honored alongside actors Patti LuPone, George Hearn and Elizabeth Wilson, playwright Brian Friel and costume designer Willa Kim, as well as late playwrights August Wilson and Wendy Wasserstein. The ceremony will take place on January 29 at Broadway's Gershwin Theatre, where the names of the eight honorees will be added to the more than 400 already in gold on the upper lobby walls. The Gershwin is a fave theater for Eugene as both Sweeney Todd and Showboat played there AND it's where Wicked is currently running.

Trinity Rep mailbag

We recently invited our subscribers to join us for a backstage glimpse at what we do here at the theater - from two different perspectives of the process - the first read-through of a play and the final technical rehearsal before it opens. I received such great responses from our guests for the day that I thought I would share them with you!

POLL: Top three plays that make me want to drop everything and run to the theater to get a ticket

So in anticipation of doing Hamlet here next month I was trolling around the internet reading this-n-that about the troubled Danish darling and I came across the statement many times that Hamlet was “arguably the best-known play in the English language" and that started me thinking - "okaaay, let's have that argument!" and to take it to the next level  - I am going to pose it this way –

What are YOUR top three plays? The ones that when you hear the name you immediately think "ooh....I would love to see that!…Who’s doing it?? When??”

So yes, thanks ever so much for asking, I will start off the debate:

Top three plays that make me want to drop everything and run to the theater to get a ticket:

1. Evita (maybe it’s because I’m just a closeted “diva dictator?")

2. Mame (yes, yes yes, there is a somewhat of a musical theme here – I just love ‘em, I’ll admit it freely!)

3. Macbeth

    What about you?
