Whom do you imagine are the perpetrators and the beneficiaries of a secret plot to start new theater companies? (Especially out around 82nd Avenue, where up to now "lingerie modeling" had been the main theatrical competition?)

I definitely see Boice as a polarizing figure whom people would be inclined to give undue credit—and flack—based on just his image. I tried to reflect that humorously in my writing because I think it's a big part of people's first impression of the guy. But I wouldn't have profiled him if I didn't think he was doing decent work. I do agree that for most artistic directors it might be weird to take a starring role, but there's an exception to every rule.

As long as you're speculating, can I posit a theory about your beef? I'm going to guess that a project/person you love is feeling sidelined by some of the new theater companies, and I don't know what to tell you. Send press releases, do good work, and try not to hate. There's no New Theater Company Conspiracy.
