The Whitest Place in America: The Musical Theatre? The Clyde Fitch Report
The Brown Tweed Society is pleased to host The Clyde Fitch Report, the nexus of art and politics.
A press release that came over the CFR transom during this past weekend seriously caught our attention. Sent out by that most intrepid of PR flacks, the irrepressible Judy Jacksina, here was the (long-ish) headline:

After all, how many times have you seen some posting on some site (we’re talking to you, posting people on All That Chat at Talkinbroadway.com) where someone writes “I need to reach so-and-so” and someone replies “Here’s how you reach them,” and unless you’re a stalker it’s all white noise?
Here’s a little more on the directory, courtesy of Jacksina:
