The announcement, made on the Muslim holiday Eid al-Adha, comes amid a flurry of negotiations, mediated by the U.S., Qatar and Egypt, to reach a cease-fire. One sticking point in those talks is a disagreement over the permanence of any cessation of hostilities. Israel’s military stressed yesterday that the pause would be limited, that its offensive in Rafah would continue and that there would be “no cessation of fighting” in southern Gaza overall. The government suggested that the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, had learned of the pause only from news reports and signaled his disapproval. But analysts said it was likely that Netanyahu was aware of the plan and the messaging of its rollout, with each tailored to different audiences.

Over half of the new musicals that opened this season had scores written by artists whose primary credentials are in the music business, like Alicia Keys, Barry Manilow and Britney Spears. My colleague Michael Paulson writes that it’s part of a broader pattern: The [wellspring of Broadway’s sound is shifting](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoUddsP0TxaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNi8xNi9icmllZmluZy90b255LWF3YXJkcy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJhZV8yMDI0MDYxNiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMjYzOTkmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1hc2lhLXBhY2lmaWMtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY5NzQxJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpmbGxSb2aAcz3BUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~), with more musicals being written by artists who started in pop. Some top artists are excited by the cross-pollination; some theater fans are worried that pop songs don’t advance storytelling like musical theater tunes. In some ways, this isn’t new: In the early 20th century, theater stars found success on the stage and the radio. There have also long been jukebox musicals. But it’s also a financial consideration. The theater industry has seen audiences shrink and costs rise since the pandemic-induced shutdowns, and familiarity sells tickets.
