  • In his nearly fourteen years as chief drama critic of The New York Times, Frank Rich was both admired as a passionate advocate for the best in New York theater and reviled as the Butcher of Broadway for his presumed destructive power over the commercial fate of Broadway shows. Hot Seat is Rich’s definitive chronicle of his long run – an encyclopedic anthology of more than three hundred of his best reviews and essays, interspersed with further thoughts, entirely new to this volume, about his adventures on the aisle at the tumultuous time when Broadway was decimated by AIDS and colonized by the British musical.
