Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastDo playwrights ever get to write their own happy endings? Ask Kimberly Belflower, author of the critical Broadway hit, "John Proctor is the Villain."For this episode we had the pleasure of talking to Kimberly Belflower, a young playwright who’s making quite a splash with her Broadway debut, “John Proctor Is the Villain” — yes, that John Proctor, from “The Crucible.” It just got seven Tony nominations, including for best play and for best leading actress in a play (for Sadie Sink — yes, that Sadie Sink, from the Netflix series “Stranger Things”). Despite what the title may suggest, the new show isn’t a spoof of Arthur Miller’s play, which is usually interpreted as an allegory about the McCarthy era. Belflower’s story is set...2025-05-1240 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastJeffrey Seller is the producer behind blockbusters like "Hamilton." Broadway, he says, desperately needs another one.Jeffrey Seller has produced quite a few of musicals, including two mega-hits that were both hugely influential and hugely successful at the box office: “Rent” and “Hamilton.” Naturally, we had to ask him: What makes a good producer?Seller dropped by the podcast to talk about his new memoir, “Theater Kid,” in which he takes us from his childhood near Detroit to his early years in New York, when he worked in the office of the producers Barry and Fran Weissler, and on to his fateful meetings with Jonathan Larson and Lin-Manuel Miranda.He had quite...2025-05-0550 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastListen as "Maybe Happy Ending" stars Darren Criss and Helen J Shen discuss their melodic musical about robots, fireflies and love on a hard drive.“Maybe Happy Ending’ is the Broadway hit that nobody really saw coming. On this episode we welcome its stars, Helen J Shen and Darren Criss, who was just nominated for a Tony Award in this role. Darren and Helen portray a pair of HelperBots who have been cast out by their owners and end up living in a robot retirement community. What happens to them is, well, the stuff of the classic story of boybot meets girlbot.The show premiered in Seoul, South Korea, in 2016. Its unlikely premise was brought to fruition by Will Aronson (musi...2025-04-2859 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastMeet Kate Valk: the great stage actress you may not know. And you certainly need to.Kate Valk joined the Wooster Group in 1979 and never looked back. We think she’s one of America’s greatest actresses, but because she’s spent her entire career with the experimental New York company, even hardcore theatergoers may not have seen her work on stage or onscreen. Fellow Woosters like Willem Dafoe (former) or Scott Shepherd (current) are easy to find because they work pretty much everywhere but Valk’s IMDB page is practically nonexistent and she’s never been on Broadway — when Elisabeth checked IBDB, the answer was“Did you mean Kate Hall? Nate Sack? Grace Falk?”Kate joined...2025-04-2156 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastReady, set (design), go! David Rockwell, scenery maestro, talks about Boop! and Pirates! and the ephemeral nature of setsIf you saw the Broadway productions of “She Loves Me” (for which he won a Tony), "Hairspray," "Legally Blonde," "Lucky Guy" or "Kinky Boots," you saw sets by this episode’s guest, David Rockwell. Rockwell is back on Broadway with designs for two shows this spring: “Pirates! The Penzance Musical” and “Boop!” We spoke with him to discuss at what stage he engages a project, the challenges he might encounter, and what he considers important in theatrical set design.We also talked about another big source of activity for his company, Rockwell Group (which he founded in 198...2025-03-2455 min

To hear more, visit marksvincentelli.substack.comSince taking over the role of the Emcee in Rebecca Frecknall’s Broadway revival of “Cabaret” in September, Adam Lambert has made his mark on one of musical theater’s most iconic roles.

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastMeet the man who brings Greek drama to the military and Ibsen to climate-change activistsOn this episode, Elisabeth and Peter interview Brian Doerries, founding artistic director of Theater of War Productions. The group is made up of dozens of well-known actors, including the likes of Frances McDormand, Bill Murray, Jeffrey Wright and Elizabeth Marvel — and Peter has been known to join it, too. Theater of War travels the country and the globe with readings of plays that inspire and provoke audiences, including “Antigone in Ferguson,” “Oedipus the King,” and a recent “An Enemy of the People” on Times Square. The company’s latest project is a collaboration with WNYC that has it reading long-form pieces...2025-02-1859 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastStephanie Styles followed her heart to BroadwayPeter and Elisabeth have been doing podcasts together for years now, but this was the first time a guest turned the tables and asked them what their three favorite musicals are!But don’t listen to this episode just for that. Listen to it because the guest is Stephanie Styles, a young musical-theater performer who’s going places — although right now she’s parked in the Encores! production of “Urinetown” at New York City Center, which you can see until Feb. 16 (Elisabeth reviewed it very favorably in the New York Times).Stephanie talked to us about growin...2025-02-1354 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastThe play's the thing -- even in Vegas, baby!You may have read Elisabeth’s article about the Off Strip theater scene in Las Vegas — and if you haven’t, here is a gift link. To give listeners the lay of the land in Sin City (or rather Sin County, to be exact), we welcomed Daz Weller, artistic director of the Vegas Theater Company, who talked to us about what it’s like to do small plays and musicals in a city best known for pop residencies and Cirque du Soleil extravaganzas. There are many obstacles, but the talent pool is fantastic and locals are getting thirstier for home-gro...2025-02-1052 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastAt long last Marjan Neshat comes to BroadwayOver the past decade, Marjan Neshat has become a welcome presence on the Off Broadway scene, and it’s rewarding to see her finally make her Broadway debut. And she’s in a mighty fine play, too: “English,” which Peter and Elisabeth loved when they saw it at the Atlantic Theater in 2022.Sanaz Toossi’s play, which won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize in drama, is about a small group of Iranians of various ages who are learning English near Tehran. Neshat plays their teacher, who repeatedly brings up her time living in Britain. We had a wonderful time chatting w...2025-01-2049 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastQuality time with Melissa ErricoElisabeth put her foot in her mouth again: she said that Melissa Errico was “lovely” — as it turns out, that’s an adjective that has often been used to describe our latest guest. But Melissa is lovely, dammit!For (we think) our first holiday episode, we were delighted to welcome one of New York’s finest songbirds. She talked to us about her new show with Billy Stritch at 54 Below, “’Twas the Night After Christmas” (naturally, it starts Dec. 26 and runs through Dec. 30), and many other things.Peter and Elisabeth both have a long history with Melissa, ha...2024-12-0954 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastRichard Nelson was in Kyiv directing one of his plays as bombs fell. The experience was life changing.The author-director of such works as “The Apple Family Plays,” “The Gabriels” and even the book for the musical adaptation of James Joyce’s “The Dead,” Richard Nelson is one of America’s finest theatermakers.He is also the modern American playwright whose work travels best, and he has been produced all over the world. No place has been as fraught as Kyiv, however, where Nelson went this past spring to direct a production of his play “Conversations in Tusculum”He recounts that experience in the new book “A Diary of War & Theatre — Making Theatre in Kyiv, Spring 2024,” pu...2024-12-0239 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastLear deBessonetFor this episode, we landed a real power player in our virtual studio: Lear deBessonet, the incoming artistic director at Lincoln Center Theater — one of the powerhouse nonprofits in New York City, with a budget of $40 million and a staff of 55. DeBessonet made her mark as one of the defining spirits behind the Public Theater’s Public Works initiative — her emphasis on theater’s communal aspects is a defining element of her approach, and one that could inspire companies around the country.In 2020 she took over New York City Center’s beloved series Encores!, and under her t...2024-11-2536 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastYour arts center doesn't look good — who you gonna call?After hearing that the 50-year-old institution California Shakespeare Theater, aka Cal Shakes, was closing down, we thought we’d ask a specialist in troubled institutions for his take on what the heck is going on in the industry. Enter Michael M. Kaiser, who ran the Kennedy Arts Center from 2001 to 2014 and currently heads the DeVos Institute of Arts Management at the University of Maryland. Michael has performed interventions at Alvin Ailey Dance Theater and the Royal Ballet and Opera in London. With the DeVos Institute, Michael continues to advise nonprofit companies around the country.Among the issues we...2024-11-0450 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastWe take you now to the Marvel Universe, as Elizabeth Marvel reveals her vision for the new play about Anita Hill and Christine Blasey FordIt is our great pleasure to welcome the indomitable Elizabeth Marvel to the podcast. She has been a formidable presence on New York stages since the late 1990s and shows no sign of slowing down. She came on to talk about “The Ford/Hill Project,” which she was instrumental in initiating — Peter wrote about it for The Washington Post back in September (gift link).Naturally, we talked about a lot of other things, including how she got to Juilliard (definitely not your typical theater-kid journey) and what theater means to her.Warning: occasional spicy language! 2024-10-2154 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastListen to some incisive talk about a hot spot for international theater. A chat with Jay Wegman of NYU's Skirball Center.Elisabeth was otherwise engaged for this episode, so Peter talked to Jay Wegman, the executive editor of New York University’s Skirball Performing Arts Center, on his own.Wegman took over at Skirball in 2016, after almost 11 years at the Abrons Ars Center. Skirball has emerged as a major presenter of cutting-edge fare from the U.S. and abroad: This season includes works by Milo Rau, the Civilians, Mies Warlop, the Builders Association, and Marlène Saldana and Jonathan Drillet. And there has been a bona fide hit with the Australian import “Counting and Cracking,” a co-production with the Pub...2024-10-1544 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastKara Young can't stop winning. We wanted to know what keeps this gifted actress on a hot streak.When Kara Young won a Tony for “Purlie Victorious” a few months ago, it wasn’t a surprise to us. We’ve long known she’s one of the best stage actors you can dream of seeing in New York — Elisabeth first noticed Kara in “Syncing Ink” at the Flea Theater back in 2017 and since then she’s kept the actress on her radar, with a profile for the New York Times in 2020. Now she has three Broadway shows under her belt (“Purlie Victorious,” “Cost of Living” and “Clyde’s”) — and a Tony nomination for each. Not too shabby! The latest entry in a...2024-09-3052 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastA Completely Appropriate Time to Talk With Branden Jacobs-JenkinsOur guest on this podcast is the playwright Branden Jacobs-Jenkins.

Branden’s next project in NYC is his collaboration with Alina Troyano “Give Me Carmelita Tropicana!,” which starts at Soho Rep on Oct. 23.In this action-packed episo...2024-09-181h 05
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastHow "Cats" was reborn as a Jellicle Ballroom hitOne of the biggest stage hits of the year in New York City has been “Cats: The Jellicle Ball,” which reimagines Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical as a ballroom competition. And there are no cats!In this episode, we talked to the show’s directors, Bill Rauch (who is also the artistic director of the Perelman Performing Arts Center, which originated the production) and Zhailon Livingston about what “Cats” means to them, how they approached the staging, their hopes for its future life — and what Lord Andrew thought of their take. Even if you think you don’t like “Cats,” y...2024-09-0447 min

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastCatching Up With Conrad RicamoraWe’re longtime fans of Conrad Ricamora, going all the way back to “Here Lies Love” at the Public, and we could not be any more pleased to have him on the podcast. He is currently playing Mary’s husband in Cole Escola’s hit Broadway comedy “Oh, Mary!” And the show truly is a hit: We recorded the episode right before the announcement of an extension through Nov. 10. Not only that, but “Oh, Mary!” recently broke the Lyceum’s all-time box-office record by grossing just over $1 million in a week.So, about Mary’s husband: since she’s Mary Todd Lincol...2024-07-2443 min

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastA talk with Judy KuhnWe were psyched to talk to one of our favorite artists, Judy Kuhn, about her performance in the Michael Friedman and Daniel Goldstein musical “Unknown Soldier” at Arena Stage, and about some of her earlier turns — you probably remember her as the mother in “Fun Home,” Fosca in the 2013 revival of “Passion,” Cosette then Fantine in different productions of “Les Misérables,” Florence in “Chess.” The list is long and impressive. Next up is the Encores! production of “Titanic” on June 11-23.

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastA chat with casting director Bernard TelseyOur guest today is a powerbroker. No, really. As a casting director, Bernard (Bernie to most people) Telsey wields considerable power — and he tries to use it for good, not evil. Telsey’s breakthrough came when he helped put together the original cast of “Rent,” back in the mid-1990s. Since then he’s worked on a gazillion shows on Broadway, Off and around the country, as well as on movies and TV — Telsey is probably the main reason every nook and cranny of HBO’s “The Gilded Age” is filled with Broadway people. As if this weren’t enough, he was one o...2024-02-2055 min

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastA chat with Selina FillingerAs listeners of this podcast (and anybody with half a brain) know, comedy is hard, which makes the success of Selina Fillinger’s play “POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great D*****s Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive” even more notable. Recounting a particularly bad day in the administration of a philandering President, the play centers on the women activating behind the scenes to prop him up. “POTUS” premiered on Broadway last year and Peter says the current production at Arena Stage is even better.

Peter wrote a big article about it, and it’s titled “Theater Is in Freefall, and the Pandemic Isn’t the Only Thing to Blame.”But there are also lots of initiatives that give us hope. After Colorado’s Creede Rep on our previous episode, we head over to the Badger State to talk about World Premiere Wisconsin, a project that wrapped up at the end of June.

How the heck did that happen, and how does it keep going? Elisabeth first went to Creede in 2021, and wrote about Creede Repertory Theater for The New York Times. She loved the experience so much that she went back to Creede on vacation the following year (and wrote a follow-up piece). Then she went skiing at nearby Wolf Creek, but that’s another story.On today’s podcast we welcome Creede Rep’s prod...2023-07-1356 min

While Elisabeth was away on assignment, Peter went solo with Arian for an illuminating conversation about Arian’s modern approach to Ibsen’s portrait of an 18th Century husband unaware of how suffocating he makes life for Jessica’s Nora.Arian talked about the character’s cluelessness, but also, about how many people, men especially, have come up to him after seeing...2023-05-1048 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastLorraine Hansberry's legacy in 2023In February, a production of Lorraine Hansberry’s play “The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window” opened at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, starring Oscar Isaac and Rachel Brosnahan. The same production, directed by Anne Kauffman, is now about to reopen on Broadway, where it’ll run until July 2. We used this opportunity to invite the director of the Lorraine Hansberry Literary Trust, Joi Gresham, to the podcast. Joi, as you will hear, is a terrific storyteller, starting with her very close connection to Hansberry — even though they never met. She moves on to talk about the connection b...2023-04-2050 min

(In the original, Irene is, of course, Irina Arkadina.) Posey is too rare a presence on New York stages, where her last appearance was almost 20 years ago in “Hurlyburly.” Like this “Seagull,” this was a New Group production directed by Scott Elliott. Clearly, these two have something good going on.Posey and Elli...2023-03-3152 min

He was a staff theater critic at Newsweek, back when weekly magazines had such a position on payroll, but arguably became even more influential when he began teaching at the Yale School of Drama. Priscilla talked to us about growing up on the Upper West Side with powerhouse parents (her mother is the literary agent Lynn Nesbit), the stars-to-be at Yale and whether or not her dad would be a...2023-03-1647 min

It’s also available as a simulcast until Feb. 12, which is fantastic news for our listeners around the country.He was remarkably candid and we covered a lot ground in our chat: growing up in New York, what happened when he saw “Burn This,” working with the LAByrinth Theater Company, his enduring colla...2023-02-0159 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastDr. Blythe Adamson is back!We always love when Dr. Blythe Adamson, of Infectious Economics, drops by the show: She’s basically been holding (virtually, of course) us by the hand since theater came back in New York. As seems to be the case every winter now — remember the lines around the block last December when everybody was trying to get tested for Omicron? — we are reading about a new variant.

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastOpening a new year with a lot of closingsIt’s like clockwork: Every January, some Broadway shows close. This year is no different as we say goodbye to “A Strange Loop,” “The Music Man,” “Ohio State Murders,” “The Piano Lesson,” “Merrily We Roll Along,” “Beetlejuice.” But what got a lot of attention were a couple of shows, “Ain’t No Mo’ ” and “KPOP,” that closed in December after very short runs. For whatever reasons, they didn’t find an audience.In this episode, Peter and Elisabeth look at what’s going on with the Broadway cycle of life (reminder: it also involves death). They also talk about recent shows they like...2023-01-1750 min

Whether it’s in Shakespeare (“Much Ado About Nothing” at the Delacorte), a popular musical (“The Color Purple”) or an August Wilson drama (she’s currently starring in the Broadway revival of “The Piano Lesson” alongside Samuel L. Jackson and John David Washington), Danielle always stands out. And of course there was her run on “Orange Is the New Black,” in which she played Tasha “Taystee” Jefferson. A more versatile performer is hard to findUnsurprisingly, we had a blast talking with Danielle and we cov...2022-12-0638 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastArthur Miller in the newsThis week our guest is Dr. Susan C. W. Abbotson, who teaches at Rhode Island College and is such an Arthur Miller specialist that she once was president of the Arthur Miller Society. She’s still on that organization’s board and also serves as performance editor of the “Arthur Miller Journal.” Let’s go on a limb and say that she knows a thing or two about this most prominent — and still incredibly popular — playwright. There’s basically a Miller play on Broadway every other season, and of course you can see his work regularly all over the United States an...2022-11-0745 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastQuality time with Stephanie J. BlockThe first time Elisabeth saw Stephanie J. Block was in “The Pirate Queen,” back in 2007, and she loved every second of it. (Do fans of this show have a name? Queenies? Whatever, Elisabeth is one of them.) Since then she has seen Stephanie in “9 to 5,” “Anything Goes,” “By the Way, Meet Vera Stark,” Little Miss Sunshine,” “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” “Falsettos,” “The Cher Show” (twice). That’s a lot of Block goodness but Peter saw this episode’s guest in “Wicked” at the Kennedy Center in 2005 so that’s some serious cred right there.Now Stephanie is playing the Baker’s Wife in “Into the...2022-11-0250 min

He has five Tony nominations and one win, for James Lapine’s “Act One” — yes, we talked about that production. You may also have se...2022-10-1151 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastA chat with Ben BrantleyOur guest for this episode is Ben Brantley, who retired in October 2020 after 27 years (most of them as chief critic) as a daily theater reviewer at The New York Times. That’s a lot of years and a lot of reviews — more than 2,500 of them.Ben is an effusive man with a quick wit and a memory like a steel trap. That’s a combination that makes for a great podcast guest. But don’t take our word for it, just listen in as we revisit many theatrical highs and listen to Ben gush about Bernadette Peters’s performa...2022-08-1754 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastThis week's guest is Kate ShindleOnce Peter recovered from learning that Kate Shindle’s apartment in Queens has a garage, he was able to fully participate in the conversation with our guest, the president of Actors’ Equity and an actor herself (perhaps you saw her in the “Fun Home” tour company, among other shows).Founded in 1913, Actors’ Equity represents more than 51,000 theater actors and stage managers. Obviously, this means that this union has played a particularly big and visible role these past two years. We talked about what’s happening with Equity these days.As you listen, you can read Pet...2022-07-1836 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastDr. Blythe Adamson: The ComebackOne of our most popular guests has been Dr. Blythe Adamson, whose company, Infectious Economics, develops covid-19 safety protocols for Broadway theaters, among other venues, including sports arenas. With masking eliminated in July as a mandate on Broadway, we wanted to have Dr. Adamson back to talk about what the change means for theater artists and theatergoers. Dr. Adamson’s take on the decision might surprise you. And there is much more to savor in this information-packed episode, which also includes a discussion of another current health threat, monkeypox, and what you should know about it....2022-07-0529 min

She was appointed artistic director in August 2019 and was scheduled to start in April 2020. As you can imagine, the timing was less than ideal, which is why Nataki’s first full in-person season is only underway now.We had a fruitful talk that covered a lot of ground: what it was like starting her job at Oregon Shakes during a pandemic, running a repertory company, building a season, improving diversity and access, and...2022-06-2050 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastMichael R. Jackson in the houseSince opening at Playwrights Horizons in 2019, the musical “A Strange Loop” has earned largely enthusiastic reviews, the Pulitzer Prize and, in its current Broadway incarnation, 11 Tony nominations. It was a pleasure to welcome the show’s creator, Michael R. Jackson, on the show. As you can well imagine, he is a man of many thoughts and opinions. Here is Peter’s review of the Woolly Mammoth production, which led to the Broadway one.Elisabeth profiled Michael R. Jackson back in 2019; a few months ago she wrote about the show’s lead, Jaquel Spivey — yes, he’s nominated, t...2022-06-0640 min

What she was too modest to say is that she is also one of the funniest actors currently working the boards. Perhaps yo...2022-05-2353 min
Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastGotta sing!

Marks & Vincentelli: A Theatre PodcastIn which we talk theater and Covid with Blythe Adamson, an infectious-disease epidemiologistAs the Broadway season started heating up this spring, so did Covid-19 cases, creating delays and headaches for several productions — so many people were out at “Macbeth” at one point that director Sam Gold had to step in and handle a couple of roles.So where does this leave theater? Is it safe to go to a show? Is it safe to be in a show? To get some answers, we invited infectious-disease epidemiologist Dr. Blythe Adamson, whose company, Infectious Economics, is working with several shows as well as tours.

My Little TonysThe 2015 Tony Awards, Part 2We debate whether Something Rotten! is mocking or celebrating musical history, trace The Visit’s long road and short stay, and celebrate Kelli O’Hara’s sixth-time’s-the-charm win for The King and I. Plus: more dream (and nightmare) threesomes, a couple of failed attempts to find a “What?!”, and maybe a little too much joshing at Josh Groban’s expense.
