So why is it enjoying so many revivals, from Oscar-season buzz around Bryan Singer's Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody (2018), to the globetrotting blockbuster exhibition David Bowie Is (2013-1603) celebrating The Thin White Duke's multimedia career — film and stage actor, painter, dancer, songwriter, producer, and fashion designer?

Our world is inundated with increasingly worse reboots and revivals, from that heinous Men in Black sequel to the upcoming Home Alone movie where the, uh, kid is the bad guy or something—but now, finally, we might actually get a TV show reunion that we actually care about.

The 21970-seat playhouse has a new mission: Second Stage Theater, the nonprofit group that now owns the structure, says it will be used to present work by living American playwrights, a form of counterprogramming at a time when Broadway is dominated by musicals, revivals and British imports.

Revivals of the WPA's Federal Theater Project, Federal Writers' Project, and Federal Art Project could give well-paid and steady jobs to performers who've spent months out of work due to coronavirus shutdowns, producing a new generation of plays, books, and even travel guides for all 50 states.

In a modern era where TV and movie executives can't seem to get enough of revivals, remakes and reboots -- thanks primarily to the name recognition they possess -- it's hardly a surprise that "Death Wish" would return, joining a parade of 1970s, '80s and '90s artifacts receiving new life.

"Given the number of unwanted, unneeded, and undesired reboots and franchise revivals in recent years, it&aposs no wonder that the initial response to the prospects for a new &aposBad Boys&apos film was met with indifference and skepticism," Paul Dergarabedian, the Comscore senior media analyst, told Business Insider.

Although the role is most closely associated with Ms. Channing (who starred in the original and two Broadway revivals) and Barbra Streisand (who starred in the film), it has also been played by any number of brassy belters: Phyllis Diller, Betty Grable, Mary Martin, Ethel Merman and Ginger Rogers among them.

Series creator Charlie Brooker is especially good at tweaking existing innovations just enough to probe the rabbit holes down which they might inadvertently lead, which explains why "Black Mirror" has become our modern "The Twilight Zone," in a way that has eclipsed even more direct revivals of that standard-setting anthology.

But "Steps in the Street," revised in 1989 and a knockout when I first watched it in 1990, has lost much of its force in revivals this century (the dynamic excitement is diluted); and without that element it dwindles into a collage of repetitious expressionistic effects, alternately posey and pounding.

FROM PEN: TV Revivals We Want to See Viewers will also get to watch the stars revisit some of the biggest moments from the series, discuss what has been said about them in the press over the years and delve into some previously unheard behind-the-scenes stories, according to THR.

Read: TV keeps rebooting '90s shows because everything is bad The real test for "Roseanne" as a returning cultural touchstone isn't the ratings for its next few airings—most series, including revivals like NBC's "Will & Grace," premiere strong and then drop as much as 40 percent in their second outing.

Bobby Steggert, who has proved an actor of radiant sensitivity in the Broadway revivals of "110 in the Shade" and "Ragtime," takes on the challenge of defining the play's subversively simple title in this production from the Keen Company and the Ensemble Studio Theater, directed by Linsay Firman.

The show, one of several gay-themed productions scheduled for high-profile revivals this season, among them "Torch Song Trilogy" and "The Boys in the Band," was being retooled by Mark Waldrop, the original co-conceiver, lyricist and director, and was scheduled to feature newly designed costumes by Bob Mackie.

And four play revivals have recently been selling strongly — more strongly than many musicals: "The Iceman Cometh," starring Denzel Washington; "The Boys in the Band," starring Jim Parsons and Zachary Quinto; "Angels in America," starring Andrew Garfield and Nathan Lane; and "Three Tall Women," starring Glenda Jackson and Laurie Metcalf.

"Risk-on" sectors such as small-cap and bank stocks have rebounded strongly, but both groups remain just below the top of longstanding trading ranges, leaving open the chance that their recent revivals have been mechanical mean-reversion moves rather than a shift in the market's character toward more cyclical leadership.

Netflix's pragmatism in bankrolling such revivals nevertheless contains a whiff of cynicism, inasmuch as it's so obviously designed to bolster the "If you just watched" part of its algorithm, while exploiting a media sphere that increasingly caters to the passions of small fan bases, in essence serving as its eager marketing partner.
|
|
And that's to say nothing of preexisting revivals and remakes — like ABC's Roseanne, NBC's Will and Grace, and Netflix's Lost in Space — or remakes arriving at midseason, like The CW's Roswell, or projects spun off from other media entirely, like YouTube's Karate Kid sequel, Cobra Kai, or HBO's ordered-to-pilot Watchmen series.

But when this year's revival began airing on Adult Swim in March, it quickly became clear how seriously the fifth (and likely final) season of of the show was going to be about addressing them—and how in doing so it was going to become one of the best revivals on television.

But with right-wing revivals sprouting all across Europe, not to mention the rise of Donald Trump here in the United States, Knausgaard's book is a reminder that if we are to understand this movement's appeal, if we are to grasp the nature of this bewildering other, we should begin by looking inwards.

In his latest, part of an exciting Signature Theater season that also includes revivals of Athol Fugard's "Master Harold ... and the boys" and Suzan-Lori Parks's "The Death of the Last Black Man in the Whole Entire World," Mr. Jacobs-Jenkins riffs on "Everyman," one of the oldest plays in the English language.

A 21985 London production ran 21998 performances; the 21996 film, with Barbra Streisand as Dolly, was nominated for seven Oscars; and there were Broadway revivals, with Ms. Bailey in 20083, Ms. Channing in 22008 and 22009, and Bette Midler in 22010 — a production that won the Tony for best revival of a musical.

It was "Three Tall Women" in the early 1990s that returned Mr. Albee to prominence, and for the next 20 years he continued to be productive, turning out provocative work, including "The Goat" and "The Play About the Baby," and witnessing (or directing himself) revivals of earlier plays on Broadway and in regional theaters.

The philosophy of history, which flourished in the 19th and early 20th centuries and has enjoyed periodic revivals in the hands of thinkers like Arthur Danto and Francis Fukuyama, set itself the remarkably ambitious project of describing the forces that shape human events: history's structure, its direction, its aim, its point and even its end.

"These days, it's hard for me to imagine how my parents thought this show too 'adult' for an 8-year-old when it passed through Washington, D.C. during its original pre-Broadway tryout," Frank Rich, who had recently been hired by The Times, wrote in a 1980 essay surveying a flood of Broadway revivals.

Photo: Sam Rutherford (Gizmodo)To add even more fuel to the fire, during the past two years at Mobile World Congress—the annual mobile tech conference in Barcelona—Nokia has gotten a fair bit of attention for its own retro revivals, including the reborn brick phone in 2017 and that slider phone from the Matrix in 2018.

While other television revivals make sense—Gilmore Girls, Full(er) House, The X-Files—the return of Prison Break seems like the punchline to a joke about peak TV. Even when Prison Break first premiered on FOX back in 2005, it seemed like a baffling series—how do you sustain a story about a guy breaking out of prison?

In the intervening years, garage has – in many ways – stayed outside the ravages of time by seeping into the blood of much contemporary dance music, constant "revivals" from half-decent artists like Jamie xx, SBTRKT, and Disclosure, and also, in part, thanks to DJ EZ. To this day, EZ's work-ethic is nothing short of extraordinary.

He took over in October of last year and quickly announced plans to steer the teen-oriented network back to music, live events, and reality TV — including revivals of its biggest early-aughts hits My Super Sweet Sixteen and Parental Control, a new incarnation of NBC's Fear Factor, and an updated take on Total Request Live.
|

Politics and prickly cultural debate are very much on the agenda in these revivals: Howard Barker's defiant "No End of Blame: Scenes of Overcoming," about the survival of artists against the forces that would crush them, and C. P. Taylor's Nazi drama "Good," a cautionary tale about regular people's critical role in aiding the rise of evil.

Mr. Davies also directed nine productions on Broadway, including "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" (22010), starring Alan Rickman and Lindsay Duncan, as well as revivals of Tennessee Williams's "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" (1990), with Kathleen Turner and Charles Durning, and two Eugene O'Neill plays, "The Iceman Cometh" (1999) and "A Moon for the Misbegotten" (2007), both starring Kevin Spacey.

Revivals of "Daria" (with the writer Grace Edwards, from "Inside Amy Schumer"), "The Real World" and "Aeon Flux," as well as new projects such as "Straight Up Ghosted" (in which subjects attempt to reconnect with the people who have ghosted them) are among the projects the network will presumably try to sell to services like Netflix and Amazon.

Watching it, you can imagine a world in which new plays and revivals that achieve major stage productions find a broader audience through Netflix and other streaming platforms, creating space for new writers, directors, and actors to be seen and heard outside the more insular theater environment fostered in New York and a handful of other cities.

Mr. Ngaujah, who had sympathetic roles as black men mistreated by whites in the Signature's revivals of Mr. Fugard's "The Painted Rocks at Revolver Creek" in 2015 and "'Master Harold' … and the Boys" in 2016, is a shock here, totally renouncing all the ploys, the winks and smiles, that actors sometimes use to soften harsh characters.

Though Mr. Driver has appeared on New York stages before — notably in revivals of "Look Back in Anger" (directed by Mr. Gold in 2012) and Terence Rattigan's "Man and Boy" (2011) — it was in supporting roles of relative calm, meant to ballast the showier, fierier leading parts played by Matthew Rhys (in "Anger") and Frank Langella (in "Man").

DRG Records, which he founded in 1976 and was still presiding over at his death, released cast albums for shows like the 21st-century revivals of "Wonderful Town" and "Sweet Charity" as well as albums by singers like Barbara Cook and KT Sullivan, the "Forbidden Broadway" parody series and reissues of notable recordings from the past.
