Broadway ... it's a Baby Boomer thing!
"Right now, what is familiar is money spent well. That's all. Money spent on the risky, the adventurous, the experimental is money poorly spent. That's the Baby Boomer mentality. Nothing can be done to compete against it. This will change, all things do, but now is not the time to expect the Baby Boomers to embrace the unexpected; it's simply not good economics, in their way of thinking."

ALL AN ALLUSION
In the first act of "The Producers," Matthew Broderick gives Nathan Lane the address of a demented playwright whom the two crooked characters need for their money-making scheme.
The Jane Street address was not selected randomly by "The Producers" team. It's where you'll find the real-life home of Thomas Meehan, who co-wrote the musical's script with Mel Brooks.
And it's not the only coy allusion in that show or others on the Great White Way. Such inside jokes are remarkably common among Broadway directors, writers and producers.

THE FRINGE BENEFITS
The pay-per-pee musical "Urinetown" didn't sound like anybody's idea of a Broadway hit two years ago, despite the sellout crowds that saw it performed during the New York Fringe Festival.
But now, "Urinetown," a musical about a place where it's no longer free to pee, is on its way to the Henry Miller Theater - and more eyes than ever are on the fifth annual Fringe.

GRIMLY HILARIOUS, PINTER HONORED AS ONE OF THE GREAT DRAMATISTS OF THE 20TH CENTURY
The extraordinary two-week Harold Pinter Festival that concluded last week at Lincon Center was remarkable for many reasons, most notably for reminding us how beautifully crafted his plays are - heaven-sent gifts for actors and directors.

THE FESTIVAL SHOWS THAT WE WOULD BET ON, IF WE WERE THE BETTING KIND
Which of the 198 Fringe Festival shows will be a breakaway hit? We've calculated the odds, and rated the shows' buzz and "Fringiness" on a scale of 1 to 10
It's theatre day at The Post!

Eric Grode's STAGE TO SCREEN: Papp Goes the Hansel
Joseph Papp was many things in his lifetime � visionary, tyrant, activist, nurturer, pain in the ass. And now he�s a trend.
Entertainment Weekly famously adheres to the rule that all you need is three similar things to have a trend. Once three movies come out about the Wild West, for example, Westerns are a trend. (To be fair, EW has shied away from the frantic trend-spotting in recent years, but it used to be constant.) Anyway, the man who created the New York Shakespeare Festival � and, by extension, much of what we call off-Broadway � is the subject of no less than four recent projects. We have a trend!
