The Tony and Emmy-winning actress Mary-Louise Parker, who last starred on Broadway in the two-character play “Heisenberg” in 2016, returned in another two-hander play “The Sound Inside,” which opened at Studio 54 on October 17. Written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Adam Rapp and directed by Tony winner David Cromer, “The Sound Inside” chronicles the nascent relationship between creative writing professor Bella Baird (Parker) and her student Christopher Dunn (Broadway newcomer Will Hochman), who bond over their passions for literature and writing and who together make a decision that will change both their lives.

Last season, director Stephen Brackett and librettist Joe Tracz teamed up for the musical “Be More Chill,” which found much favor with the teenage demographic of Broadway theatergoers. Just two months after that show shuttered, Brackett and Tracz return to the Great White Way with another teen-oriented tuner, “The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical,” which officially began its limited run at the Longacre Theatre on October 16.
Featuring a score by Broadway newcomer Rob Rokicki, “The Lightning Thief” hews closely to the popular young adult novel by Rick Riordan (which also inspired a movie franchise). Set present day, the musical follows the titular demigod Percy Jackson, played by Chris McCarrell, who attends Camp Half-Blood after he learns of his parentage to hone his skills and ward off the demons of Greek mythology.

On Sunday nights, millions of viewers watch Brian Cox deliver a gargantuan performance as Logan Roy on HBO’s Emmy-winning drama series “Succession,” but eight times a week Cox steps into the shoes of the truly towering, historical figure Lyndon B. Johnson in “The Great Society” on Broadway.
“The Great Society,” the second play about President Johnson from Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winner Robert Schenkkan, opened on Broadway at the Vivian Beaumont Theater on October 1. Its predecessor play “All The Way,” which depicts Johnson’s first year in office from 1963-64 after the death of John F. Kennedy, bowed in 2014 and won the Tony Award for Best Play and Best Actor for Bryan Cranston. Cranston would later reprise the role for an HBO film adaptation, which landed him a SAG Award win and Emmy, Golden Globe, Critics’ Choice, TCA, and Gold Derby nominations.
