Stop! That! Train! looks like an outrageous genre throwback about a train that can't stop and is about to pass through a storm.

Sondheim never sought to make creations in his own image. The songs he wrote...had nothing to do with him as a person, or so he would always insist.

Evan's misery goes far deeper than the typical pop-culture depiction of a struggling teen. His despair is so palpable, we can't be certain he'll emerge from it.

Forty years ago, Webber was absurdly popular, Britain's number one cultural export of the '80s. It was an Ed Sheeran-ish popularity: an insanely prolific hitmaker, yes, but he never commanded a fraction of the critical adulation of, say, Stephen Sondheim or Kander & Ebb.

Amber Ruffin's joy is infectious. And she's bringing that joy to her latest production, the original off-Broadway show Bigfoot! The Musical, co-written by Kevin Sciretta. The show's plot involves a corrupt mayor, gullible townspeople and a kindhearted Bigfoot who longs for community. What evolves on stage takes on even more meaning in today's political landscape. Ruffin started writing Bigfoot! in 2014.

As seen in viral Instagram videos, the interviewer asked about the Wicked sequel's ambiguous ending, and Grande was ready to make her case, warning, "Oh, I'm gonna ruin that for you." She confirmed that Glinda doesn't know Elphaba is alive, even though it seems like they reconnect through magic in the final scene of the film. "She can't. Well, they don't see each other," she said. "You see us, but we don't see each other. She's far as hell."
