Yesterday we mentioned the two thea-TAHS that got renamed the Schoenfeld and the Jacobs.
Well,
Broadway is AGHAST because the two honorees are -- gasp! -- LAWYERS. All the more appropriate to so name them. Other theatres have been named for great actresses (Helen Hayes) and playwrights (Eugene O'Neill) and composers (Richard Rodgers) and critics (Brooks Atkinson). How apt in this PLATINUM AGE OF ENTERTAINMENT to name theaters for LAWYERS
SINCE THAT'S WHAT WRITES THE PLAYS.
