In 2020, 89-year-old Lois Smith became the oldest actor to ever score a Tony nomination for her performance in The Inheritance.

When the play originally debuted off-Broadway in 2015, the aforementioned Lois Smith received…

Major productions across the stage and screen have been a cornerstone of Danielle Brooks’ career, from her breakout role in Netflix’s Orange is the New Black to her Broadway debut in The Color Purple, for which she earned a Tony Award nomination for best featured actress in 2016, to the 2023 musical film adaptation of Alice Walker’s book which earned her Oscar and Golden Globe nominations.

The 2010s were dominated by teen dramas as the genre proliferated on The CW. However, one of the biggest shows of the decade was MTV’s supernatural teen series, Teen Wolf.

Why would someone take on the mammoth task of bringing back Chess to Broadway? Allow Emmy-winning scribe Danny Strong to explain. “These songs are so incredible and there’s so many good ideas for a story here,” Strong tells Gold Derby of his thought process behind accepting unenviable task of writing an all-new book for the 1988 musical. “If there was a way to bring some macro-clarity to it, I thought it could be a fantastic show.” Chess originally debuted on Broadway in 1988 with a score from Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of ABBA fame, and lyrics from Tony winner…
