"Jake Shears" of the Scissor Sisters is

"Jake Shears" of the Scissor Sisters is working with Jeff Whitty (of "Avenue Q") (both former go-go boys!) on a musical of "Tales of the City." Musical theater just somehow got a whole lot gayer!

"Rent," the worst musical in the history

"Rent," the worst musical in the history of musicals, grossed more than $280 million dollars on Broadway since April, 1996—and grossed another $330 million in national tours. (The 2005 movie version of "Rent," by the way, only grossed $31 million worldwide.) Because I'm a terrible judge of everything, I was convinced at the time that it would close in workshops. Now, at last, "Rent" will close on Broadway this June. Too late!
