Back in May we asked what you thought of a Sex and the City movie, 51% of you thought it was coming three years too late. Whether we like it or not, the movie is going to happen - after Kim Cattrall finally signed on. Word is that she wanted a higher salary and a deal for a future HBO show, both of which she got. Guess her post-Samantha days haven't been filled with great......

Just when we finally washed the show right out of our hair, it's being reported that the "long-awaited" Sex and the City movie is getting closer to hitting the big screen. Mario Cantone, who played wedding planner and fag-for-Charlotte-to-hag Anthony Marantino, is the only one talking details so far: "Hopefully the Sex and the City movie is going to happen this fall," he said. "If it does, I'm in it which would be nice so......

Gothamist caught last week’s performance of the “revival” of John Flynn’s Dances with Pitchforks and can’t stop talking about how good it is. Flynn’s tale of being a chorus boy in a Millburn, New Jersey regional production of Gypsy that featured über-diva and Eight is Enough stepmother Betty Buckley is too good to be true. And yet it is.

We first became aware of Mario Cantone's stage gifts after seeing him in the Roundabout’s revival of Stephen Sondheim’s Assassins and in Manhattan Theatre Club’s The Violet Hours. Gothamist had also loved him as Charlotte’s acid-tongued wedding planner Anthony Marentino on Sex & The City. His new one-man Broadway show is aptly called Laugh Whore, and Cantone delivers a riotous evening of of comedy and music. Cantone references classic television variety shows often, and we......

Dame Edna, Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, Eve Ensler and Mario Cantone are all heading to Broadway this fall in one-person shows. Variety via Yahoo reports on the huge abundance of one-person shows opening before Christmas. Why so many at once? Because these shows aren't as expensive to capitalize due to their low overhead costs, and they contain a reasonably low amount of risk, given the past track records and fan bases of these performers. The......

Apparently, there was cause of worry about what kind of exampes these women from Sex and the City were, what with their high fashion, fruity drinks, and dating different men. Because the Post finds a few women who have decided to model their lives on the characters of the hit HBO show, to the point of realizing that the jobs are crappy and there's a lot of debt to be had. These must be the......
