I guess that was an exception to the rule

We need some new names producing on Broadway don't we?

if you mean rules...
there are no rules as to how one can make theatre. That does not mean that individual people who make theatre do not behave in predictable ways. To suggest that we cannot predict individual behavior is silly, and I have never suggested any such thing.

You must pardon my confusion about your dictums, but perhaps you can forgive it in light of the fact that my understanding of the theatre and those who work in it, like that of all others who read and post on this board, is so much less than yours...

1. There is nothing I have said that provides any basis for intuiting that. I can't even imagine what combination of premises leads you to that conclusion.

2. There is also nothing I have said that provides any basis for intuiting that I have any greater understanding than you or anyone else.

3. I would assume you have come across people who say they are going to do something and then reliably do it, whereas you have come across others who say something that is simply aspirational. This is no different from that.
