All For One Theater

Tracy Thorne on Today on Broadway (10/6/20)!

Listen to Tracy Thorne discuss JACK WAS KIND with BroadwayRadio!

09/08/2020

New York City can’t rebound without Broadway. And Broadway’s road back is uncertain.

Our friend Peter Marks hits the nail on the head. Again.

Why reopening the nation’s premier theater district is far more arduous than anybody predicted.

Nick Cordero Video Tribute
“One of the Great Ones”
As Featured Tonight During Special Memorial

This evening, Broadway On Demand, the new theater-focused streaming platform, exclusively streamed a celebratory memorial tribute honoring Tony Award nominee Nick Cordero, who recently passed away from COVID-19 complications.
In honor and celebration of Nick’s memory, over 150 of his friends, colleagues, and family from all over the world came together to sing the song that will keep Nick in our hearts forever — “One of the Great Ones” from A Bronx Tale. The resulting video was featured during the streaming of the memorial.

This is great!

“I have been overwhelmed by the compassion, humanity, and unstoppable creativity expressed by our company of 1776 who have come together from across the country for our virtual workshop. Their resilience has infused me with hope for the future of theater amid this time of uncertainty.

As we embark on our journey together on this production, we find ourselves reckoning with our country's history, reexamining the pivotal moment of our nation’s founding portrayed in 1776—the writing of the Declaration of Independence, a ‘promissory note,’ that, in Martin Luther King’s words ‘America has defaulted on.’ Our cast includes multiple representations of gender, race, and ethnicity that allow this revival of 1776 to more broadly reflect today’s America, our America.

As artists, we are embracing our American history as a human predicament and are committed to the process of learning from the past in order to move forward together.” – Diane Paulus, Director of 1776 / Terrie and Bradley Bloom Artistic Director #1776Revival
