As Tony Awards season fades into memory and Broadway turns its attention toward summer audiences, an extraordinary number of productions are preparing to take their final bows. Some departures were expected. Others arrive as genuine surprises. Together they paint a fascinating picture of a season in which awards, critical acclaim, and audience enthusiasm have not […]

John Lithgow is only getting better with age. With his latest Tony Awards win for actor in a play for “Giant,” Lithgow, 80, became the oldest man ever to win a competitive acting Tony. The benchmark he surpassed belonged to two men, one of whom was nominated on Sunday night — Dick Latessa, who won […]

The Best Play race remains a toss-up as _The Balusters_ and _Giant_ tie for that prize.

The play acting races are a reminder that Tony Awards are never just about who delivered the single best performance. Narrative matters. Visibility matters. Momentum matters. Industry relationships matter. A production’s overall health matters. Which is why I believe John Lithgow remains the frontrunner for Giant. Lithgow is one of the most respected actors of […]

Giant, the four-time Tony-nominated Broadway production starring John Lithgow as scandal-plagued children’s author Roald Dahl, has recouped its $5.6 million capitalization just 10 weeks into its planned 16-week limited engagement. Producers Brian and Dayna Lee, Stephanie Kramer and Nicole Kramer, Josh Fiedler and Robyn Goodman, and Royal Court Theatre made the announcement today. The production…

A filmed version of “Giant,” the Olivier Award-winning and Tony-nominated play starring John Lithgow as author Roald Dahl, will be released on the big screen in the fall. “Giant,” recorded at London’s Harold Pinter Theatre with Lithgow, Aya Cash, Elliot Levey and Rachael Stirling, will play in cinemas starting on Nov. 19 in the United […]

We also break down some surprise inclusions (Richard Thomas in _The Balusters_) and shocking omissions ("Tempress" Chasity Moore in _Cats: The Jellicle Ball_).

Broadway’s second-biggest morning arrived with the usual mix of anticipation and surprise, as nominations for the 79th Annual Tony Awards began rolling out on CBS Mornings, with the industry’s most closely watched categories—Best Musical, Best Play, and the leading and featured performance races—setting the tone early. If there was a throughline, it was unpredictability. Notable […]

Time is running out: the nominations will be announced Tuesday morning.

Vertical has shared the official trailer for Giant, its newest sports drama starring Golden Globe nominee Pierce Brosnan (Die Another Day, The Matador).

The actors embody the two sides of the Jewish perspective on Isreal and antisemitism in the Tony-contending play starring John Lithgow as Roald Dahl.

Selon les informations d’Electrek, Giant pourrait devenir la première marque à intégrer la technologie de batteries semi-solides sur un vélo électrique, plus sûre et performante que le lithium-ion.

The screen-to-stage adaptation of the beloved 1975 film didn't wow the critics, but could still find purchase with voters.

EXCLUSIVE: CAA has signed Mark Rosenblatt, the Olivier Award-winning theater and film writer and director whose debut play Giant opened last week on Broadway in a critically acclaimed production starring John Lithgow. Giant, which features Lithgow as children’s book author Roald Dahl, won the 2025 Olivier Award and London Critics’ Circle Award for Best New […]

In Ken Fallin’s latest Broadway illustration, John Lithgow looms—quite literally—as Roald Dahl in Giant, capturing both the physicality and psychological weight of a man whose legacy is as towering as it is complicated. Fallin renders Lithgow with his signature economy of line and sly exaggeration, elongating the frame just enough to suggest both stature and […]

The two actors previously squared off at the 2025 Olivier Awards where Lithgow prevailed.

Talent can dazzle. It can seduce. Giant makes uncomfortably clear, it can also just under the surface waiting to be unleashed. Mark Rosenblatt’s sharply constructed Broadway debut, now playing at the Music Box Theatre under the assured direction of Nicholas Hytner, peels back the layers of literary icon Roald Dahl to reveal something far less […]

The actor won an Olivier Award for the show's London run and is a Tony frontrunner for the Broadway production.

The ferocity of John Lithgow’s explosive performance as Roald Dahl – the children’s author as reviled by some as he was beloved by others – seems to show itself right from the start of Mark Rosenblatt’s extraordinary play Giant, opening on Broadway tonight. Our first glimpse of Lithgow’s Dahl catches the writer in full curmudgeon […]

Watching “Giant,” opening March 23 on Broadway after a much-hailed run on London’s West End, one is left with little wonder how its protagonist, Roald Dahl, achieved such success as a writer for children. The child within him is ever-present — in control of what is perhaps only technically an adult man. As played by […]

Avec un cadre intégrant la batterie, une selle suspendue d’office et un écran-application de nouvelle génération, le Giant NewTour E+ hausse son jeu dans le segment des vélos électriques urbains.

An eventful week saw the dueling premieres of two high-profile Emmy contenders and a _Giant_ Tony event.

Le n°1 mondial du vélo, Giant, devrait enregistrer un début d’année 2026 marqué par une nouvelle chute de son chiffre d’affaires, dans un contexte marqué par le recul des exportations taïwanaises vers les États-Unis et la montée en puissance des acteurs chinois en Europe.

Look for a production of a stage musical adaptation of The Princess Bride. With music by the Academy Award winning team of Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, Tony Award-winning book writers Bob Martin and Rick Elice, music supervision by Tom Kitt and direction by Tony Award-winner Alex Timbers. This looks to be something to keep […]
