Wait---WAAAAT?????
#LateNight with #SethMeyers prefaced #CloserLook with an announcement about his guests, one of which is Matthew Broderick performing in a rather antique French play? did Broadway run out of current material???

TARTUFFE! Mon Dieu! C'est Moliere! WTF is Moliere doing in THIS century?

I mean seriously! #Broadway doesn't have anymore contemporary playwrights to the point that it's likely to turn to Shakespeare next.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a #Moliere fan; he's a brilliant satirist. But he's effin' 17th century. If Moliere, then Shakespeare's next. Gotta be.

Steven Colbert had PeteTownshend on! Pete (I call him Pete, I know him so well), Pete mentioned that there’s currently a Broadway musical production of Quadrophenia running. That must be pretty good!

“Quadrophenia” - That one is current. I think it's about ATVs and the misadventures of the riders, right?

;-}

@tom grzybow
It's a ballet, they said--ya, I saw that too. But that goes to my point about an absence of contemporary playwrights. Quad wasn't written in this century either. Okay, so Moliere doesn't mean Shakespeare's next--it means that Tommy is next. STILL...
