Tatiana Córdoba has taken Broadway by storm and has no plans for stopping. This past Sunday, she opened Real Women Have Curves to rave reviews and we caught up with her to chat about her incredible Broadway debut.

We are about to have a lot of joy this summer! As previously announced, a musicalized new work based on the true story of inventor and entrepreneur is headed Off-Broadway this summer in Joy The Musical. Broadway favorite Betsy Wolfe stars as Joy and Mauricio Martinez is set to star as Tony in the new production. We here at Theatrely have your first look at a new music video of “You Are A Melody To Me” from the show.

Othello is Kimber Elayne Sprawl’s 7th Broadway show, but before this season she had never done a play here in New York City. An illustrious career that ranges from Beautiful to Girl From The North Country to Wicked, Sprawl has made a name for herself but she was ready for a new challenge. Enter Kenny Leon. After starting the season in the company of Home at Roundabout, Sprawl landed Emilia in the much talked about starry revival of Othello currently starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal. I recently sat down with Sprawl to chat about her connection to The Bard, transitioning into the world of plays, and her love of the New York Public Library. Our conversation has been edited for length and clarity. All photos are by Carianne Older/Theatrely. 

If you saw a row of cowboy hats walking up West 48th Street yesterday afternoon, you might have just passed opening night of Dead Outlaw.

Whether you have binged every episode on Netflix or you are walking in fully blind to the Stranger Things universe, there is one thing for certain: you are bound to fall in love with this zany cast of characters. Stranger Things: The First Shadow is a prequel to the series and takes us back 30 years to the late 1950s where we meet this ragtag group and go on one thrilling adventure. I caught up with the cast during rehearsals to chat with them and dive into the world of Stranger Things. 

The curtain is officially up! Last night, Smash opened on Broadway at the Imperial Theatre and Theatrely photographer Carianne Older was on the scene to celebrate Bella Coppola who stars as Chloe in the hit new musical. 

One thing is for certain, when The Hollywood Reporter calls you one of Netflix’s “go-to writers,” things are going pretty well. Lindsey Ferrentino has been writing works seen across the New York stage for years now, and she’s just getting started. Between The Artist, The Queen of Versailles, multiple film projects, Ferrentino has now been nominated for her first Olivier Award for The Fear of 13 which recently had a critically acclaimed run at the Donmar Warehouse in London starring Academy Award winner Adrien Brody. I caught up with Ferrentino recently to chat about balancing multiple projects, gushing over Adrien Brody, and what she might wear this Sunday to the awards. Our conversation has been edited for clarity and length.

In Death Becomes Her, ensemble member Warren Yang performs crazier splits than a drag queen and tumbles down majestic stairs, in slow motion, in a performance The New York Times called "astonishing." As the musical's leading ladies murder each other — over and over — Yang steps in as the stunt double for aging star Madeline (Megan Hilty), bewigged and blonde, a choice in lockstep with the production's campy style. 

The wait is almost over! Tomorrow, Ghostlight Records will release the Original Broadway Cast Recording in digital and streaming formats of Maybe Happy Ending.
