I am not sure what I am more excited about, Harry Potter opening on the screens today or Jason Robert Brown's Last Five Years coming to New York with a producing team that is not mired in controversy and conflict of interest as Lincoln Center is right now. I have seen both (Harry Potter and Last Five Years), and they are the inspiration that keep us all working towards a lifetime in the arts.

New producing team signs on for 'Years'

Bell, Tepper join Brown's new musical 11/15/01 4:49pm
"The Last Five Years" has acquired a new producing team, Marty Bell and Arielle Tepper. Jason Robert Brown's new musical about a troubled marriage had been on Lincoln Center Theater's winter 2002 sked but got pulled last month, replaced by "The Carpetbagger's Children."
This is excellent news. I mentioned back in June that Marty had an interest in this show.

CONFUSED FAMILY AFFAIR by DONALD LYONS

A Cliched Tale of Two Coasts

The Jewish family in "Everett Beekin" sure does travel a long way just to make the obvious point that assimilation, unlike Ma's chicken soup, isn't always good for the soul.

Public Theater Cuts Staff to Offset Losses in Funds by ROBIN POGREBIN

    The Joseph Papp Public Theater has laid off about 20 percent of its staff to balance its budget, citing a downturn in the economy, cuts in city funds and an expected drop in donations. The action follows the resignation of the theater's two largest donors and the departure of its executive director, Fran Reiter, the former deputy mayor of New York who was brought in for her administrative skills less than a year ago.
