Daniel Radcliffe recalled working with the late Michael Gambon, who played Dumbledore in 'Harry Potter,' at Variety's Business of Broadway breakfast.
‘s annual Business of Broadway Breakfast, fortifying themselves with coffee and frittatas on a rare day off, to celebrate a new season of plays, musicals and revivals., Jonathan Groff and Lindsay Mendez. They are taking their acclaimed Off-Broadway production of “Merrily We Roll Along” to the Main Stem and hoping to redeem the Stephen Sondheim musical, which flopped when it debuted in 1981.
“He knows he’s at his best when he’s at his most playful,” Radcliffe said. “His ability to switch on was second to none.” Luckily, there’s a similarly silly energy to “Guttenberg,” which follows two earnestly clueless theater composers who try to pitch a less-than-accurate musical about the life of Johannes Guttenberg, the inventor of the printing press.
“We have a real Sam and Diane, like, will-they, won’t-they situation,” he cracked. Because of their shared rise to prominence, they know it is death do us part.. and a bit beyond. “We joke that we will be named in each other’s obituaries, which brings a special closeness to friends. Josh thinks I’m going to die first… which is really sweet.”God knows there’s plenty of reasons to be glum about the battle between art and commerce, as well as the general state of the world.
One mantra has been “No stories about us without us,” said Fiona Rudin, a producer of “How to Dance in Ohio.” “It’s those little lifts that make for a better space for all of us.” “We all started pretty young. You don’t do it for this long unless you really like doing it” Radcliffe said. “On film sets, there’s a jadedness that can creep in. But I don’t have to hide how much l love doing this job around you guys. Jonathan is one of the most excited people for the show every night… including the audience.”
