Welcome to Ira J. Bilowit's Ongoing Theatre Scene Commentary
This site is being developed by me (Ira Bilowit) as a source and resource about "people who make theatre", with comments, interviews, informal reviews, and feature stories.
It will be comprised of new material as well as archival material culled from decades of my interviews and roundtable discussions with "luminaries" from the theatre world. It will include playwrights (e.g., Tennessee Williams, Eugene Ionesco, David Mamet, et al), performers (e.g., Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Estelle Parsons, Jonathan Pryce, Edward Asner, Alfred Drake, Rex Harrison, et al), composers, directors, designers, and producers -- well-known theatre professionals from every theatre discipline.
While this site is in development, visit scenebyme-ijb.blogspot.com for current comments and musings about the theatre scene.
You can also visit my blogsite "When I First Met..." where you'll find random chapters from a forthcoming book of interviews with well-known theatre artists.
