„They say there’s always magic in the air – on Broadway” – so besangen die Drifters im Jahr 1962 New Yorks berühmtesten Straßenzug. Der Name strahlt hell wie Neonlicht und klingt wie eine Stephen-Sondheim Melodie. Der Begriff steht für das berühmteste Unterhaltungsviertel der Welt – das Carrée rund um den Times Square mit seinen 41 Theatern, in denen jahrein und jahraus Hit-Musicals wie "Wicked" oder "Hamilton" ein Millionenpublikum anlocken und Hollywood-Schauspieler in klassischen Dramen Abend für Abend der Herausforderung ehrlicher Bühnenarbeit stellen. Für die neueste Folge von "212" haben wie mit einem der großen Macher am Broadway gesprochen. Todd Haimes ist Direktor des Roundabout Theatre – dem größten nicht-kommerziellen Theater der USA. Das hat insgesamt fünf Bühnen und setzt auf Qualität. Haimes hat uns in seinem Lieblingstheater, der einstigen Glamour-Disco "Studio 54", getroffen und uns sein Leben als Influencer und Visionär des New Yorker Entertainment-Betriebs erklärt.
The head of the Roundabout Theatre, he’s worked with, well, everyone, and knows that meeting a childhood idol is risky; they can be horrible people. But what joy when “the person you dreamed about actually turn out to be wonderful. Wonderful!” Hear who, in this conversation at the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center. Music from Jolie Blonde.
We celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Roundabout Theatre Company, one of the largest and most influential not-for-profit theaters in the USA. Our guests, Todd Haimes, Jim Carnahan and Scott Ellis; discuss the institutions history and future.
Todd Haimes (Artistic Director/CEO) joined Roundabout as the Executive Director at the age of 26. From 1983 to 1990, he served in that position, overseeing the company's finances, marketing and fundraising. Mr. Haimes has been the Artistic Director of Roundabout Theatre Company since July 1, 1990, and he became the Artistic Director and CEO in 2015. Mr. Haimes is the former President and currently serves on the Board of The Alliance of Resident Theatres/New York – the service organization representing all not-for-profit theatres in New York City – and he is a member of the Broadway League Executive Committee. He is the recipient of the 2013 Lucille Lortel Lifetime Achievement Award and was named a Crain’s New York Business 40 Under 40 honoree in 1992. It was under Todd’s leadership that the Roundabout Theater emerged from bankruptcy, acquired three (!) Broadway houses, and expanded its mission to produce classic musicals which eventually yielded productions like Cabaret with Alan Cumming. So how did this all happen? You’ll find out on this week’s podcast, where Todd tells me . . . Why he’s an Artistic Director that doesn’t direct. The three seminal moments that made Roundabout what it is today. How Roundabout almost went bust . . . more than once, and how his gut turned it around. Why never having a “master plan” was the best plan anyone could ever make. Why he hates premium pricing.

With Theresa Rebeck's "The Understudy" soon to close at the Roundabout and Douglas Carter Beane's "Mr. and Mrs. Fitch" beginning rehearsals at Second Stage, director Scott Ellis discusses his attraction to both projects and the delays and opportunities that caused each of them to land in New York a bit later than originally expected. He also discusses his early and absolute conviction that he was destined for a career as an actor, and how quickly that changed; how his friendship with John Kander and Fred Ebb from his acting in "The Rink" helped him to land his very first directing job, a revival of "Flora the Red Menace" at the Vineyard Theatre; the enormous opportunities afforded to him by artistic director Todd Haimes at the Roundabout, where Ellis is Associate Artistic Director; how and why he and Susan Stroman came to devise "And The World Goes Round"; his early work on the plays "Picnic" and "A Month in the Country" after his successes with "A Little Night Music" at the New York City Opera and "She Loves Me" -- Roundabout's first musical; the opportunity to collaborate on the creation of "Steel Pier" and the challenges of opening an original book musical in New York without benefit of an out-of-town tryout; why he feels "The Look of Love", his Bacharach and David revue didn't succeed -- and why he thinks it was always meant to be done "drinks in hand"; and how he tackled "Twelve Angry Men", a seemingly familiar work which had never been produced professionally in New York. Original air date - January 11, 2010.
