At the gala celebration of the new Broadway sensation Paranormal Activity with star Travis A. Knight. The excited audience reaction has been unlike anything I have seen. A great escape that I am thrilled to be a part of. #paranormalactivity

It's not every day the FedEx guy delivers a Tony Award with your name on it. I cannot tell you how happy I am for everyone on the Schmigadoon! team who helped make this show such a success. The real honor for me is being a part of that wonderful group of theater professionals.

“By treating horror as an art form rather than a cheap set of jump scares, this thrilling new show…proves how jaw-clenchingly, arm-clutchingly frightening horror on stage can be,” wrote The Guardian about the recent London production of Paranormal Activity. Broadway previews begin tonight.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ed Harris, and Allison Janney star in a Jon Robin Baitz play about a wealthy, politically connected family in Palm Springs whose reunion is shattered by a devastating secret. All with cutting insight and razor-sharp wit. As a co-producer, maybe I’m biased—but this is a must-see.

Where’s Charlie? The choice: be with my niece and nephew for their high school graduation or join my fellow producers to accept the Tony Award for SCHMIGADOON! The answer: join the graduates in person. My SCHMIGADOON! colleagues know I was with them in spirit. We are all winners!

At last night’s opening of JOE TURNER’S COME AND GONE with producer Brian Anthony Moreland, who included me on the production team as a co-producer. The production pays tribute to playwright August Wilson’s greatness with a stellar cast and excellent direction. #joeturner’scomeandgone #augustwilson

CALL ME IZZY had its final Broadway performance yesterday. The “remarkable new play” (according to Deadline) will live on in our memories as the triumph it was. It has been an honor to be a part of the production team.

At Call Me Izzy opening night with playwright Jamie Wax on June 12, 2025 I am so happy for Jamie, who brilliantly created Izzy’s story, and Jean Smart, who brought Izzy to life on the stage with incredible acting skill. Being a producer of this funny and moving play is a proud moment for me.
