Exclusive: The 1/52 Project, a new financial grant program founded by Tony Award-winning set designer Beowulf Boritt, has selected the first seven early-career designer recipients to benefit from 100,000 in grants. Each of the inaugural recipients will receive grants up to 15,000, with applicants chosen based on talent, creativity, innovation, and potential for future excellence in the professional theatrical field.
The 2022 recipients are Brittany Bland, projection designer; Everett Elton Bradman, sound designer; Stefania Bulbarella, projection designer; Jessica Alexandra Cancino, set designer; Frank Cazares, costume designer; Jordan McCree, sound designer; and Jingyi Johanna Pan, costume designer.
“I know I am extraordinarily lucky to be able to make a living as a theatre designer, much less to have the opportunity to do it on Broadway,” said Boritt. “Part of that luck was being born a middle-class white boy. The goal of The 1/52 Project is to give a little encouragement to a talented group of early...

Exclusive: We hear Paramount+ is developing Dee Takes Seoul, a K-pop dramedy from writer Diana Snyder Ritter (Young & Hungry), South Korean production company Cj Entertainment and Paramount Television Studios, with Jenny Lee attached as executive producer and showrunner.
Paramount+ declined to comment.
Written by Snyder Ritter, Dee Takes Seoul is a fish out of water dramedy that follows Dee Martinez, a twenty-something struggling choreographer who is about to give up on her dreams when she gets the opportunity of a lifetime— to become a choreographer for an up-and-coming girl group. There’s just one catch… they’re a K-pop band and the job requires Dee to move to South Korea. Now Dee, a Philly girl with the attitude to prove it, finds herself exploring, falling in love, and dancing her way through Seoul.
Snyder Ritter and Lee executive produce with Wendy Howard Goldberg and Nadine Schiff-Rosen. Cj Entertainment produces via Paramount Television Studios.

For decades, neurology professor Dr. Andrew Charles has toiled away at UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine as a migraine specialist. A hugely prevalent and disabling disorder, migraines have nevertheless failed to be treated as seriously within fundraising circles as marquee diseases like cancer or HIV/AIDS.
All of that changed two months ago, when Charles was informed by hospital administrators that a donation had been made by Leonard Goldberg, Aaron Spelling's longtime producing partner, and his wife of 42 years, Wendy Goldberg.
The amount: $10 million.
"I was flabbergasted. People could have heard me yelling from across ...
