We’re having a fantastic time over at You Can’t Take It With You at the Longacre Theater on the big Broadway, and apparently even The New York Times digs it, so come on down and enjoy the fun. Here’s a swell video capturing the madness of our recording session, with so many of my favorite musicians blowing their brains out in service of Kaufman and Hart.

Sh-K-Boom Records has now made available full audio commentary for the entire original cast recording of The Bridges of Madison County.  You can start listening right now on YouTube!

Mara Reinstein reviews the five standout films of this year’s Toronto International Film Festival for US Weekly, and here’s what she has to say about The Last Five Years: The Last 5 Years Alrighty, Pitch Perfect and Smash fans, this one is dedicated to you. In this gem of a musical (based on a cult favorite off-Broadway show), Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan chronicle their up-and-down New York City romance via lovely original songs. And even amid their heartbreak and passion, Kendrick squeezes in a killer zinger about Russell Crowe’s vocals. Applauseworthy! (In theaters February 14).
