The Dallas Theater Center has been in negotiations for the rights to a new musical version of the book and miniseries Sarah, Plain and Tall for many months. It has finally announced the show as the final entry in its 2008-2009 season. The songs in the show are by Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin, who also wrote Legally Blond. Their version had a public workshop version in downtown New York a few years ago, but the DTC production is being billed as the world premiere. It will run April 22 through May 24.

Jeremy Pivens, the TV actor who's one of the three stars of the highly successful Broadway revival of David Mamet's Speed-the-Plow, missed Tuesday's performance and Wednesday's matinee and announced he's not returning to the show. He says his doctors have advised him that his mercury levels are high. According to Variety, the apparently skeptical Mr. Mamet said. "So my understanding is that he is leaving show business to pursue a career as a thermometer." Mr. Mamet is also reported as saying that some high-profile performer(s) will be stepping in for the quicksilver actor.
