Hamilton is a show that needs no introduction. It’s a once-in-a-generation hit that’s inspired a Grammy performance, counterfeit ticket stings (foiled by a genius woman and fan accounts dedicated to Phillipa “Pippa” Soo, the impecably stylish singer whose sense of humor and #castlove makes her feed and must-see.

It’s kind of a dream, for a stage actor, to originate a role. And then reprise it overseas. That’s exactly what the tiny powerhouse Cynthia Erivo has done with Celie in the revival of The Color Purple.

Disaster! just opened a few weeks ago, but its hilarious lampooning of 1970s slap-stick movies is of course totally sold out. Like, for weeks.

From Juilliard to the Tony Awards in a month, Alexander Sharp brought to life one of the most beloved young roles on Broadway in The Curious Incident of the Dog in The Nighttime. He recently ended his run, but his selfies with his golden retriever puppy co-stars are still highlights of his feed. Bonus points for dating an equally talented and beautiful actress. Extra bonus points for being one of Anna Wintour’s favorite people.

Saycon Sengbloh is quite literally stealing the show of Eclipsed, a brand-spanking-new production, from leading lady Lupita Nyong’o. The show itself is apparently absurdly epic and moving, and that’s no small thanks to Saycon’s bring-the-house-down performance.
