I dunno, I'd think straight white males are still served pretty well. Just looking at the current Broadway season (as represented by things reviewed on this site), I'd say these shows are about or primarily focussed on straight white male concerns:

700 Sundays
All The Way
Big Fish
Bronx Bombers
Let it Be
Rocky
A Time To Kill

Also there's a couple of cases where there are straight white males in shows that shouldn't actually feature white males at all (Aladdin, for example - the characters are meant to be arabic, but Adam Jacobs sure doesn't look arabic, nor does Jonathan Freeman)
