Holland Taylor and Ana Villafañe will star in the Off Broadway world premiere of Mario Correa’s new play N/A this summer, playing congresswomen of different generations in a production directed by Tony winner Diane Paulus.
Taylor will play “N,” the first woman Speaker of the House, and Villafañe will portray “A,” the youngest woman ever elected to Congress. The play is described as being inspired by real people and events, and although producers did not name names the descriptions more-than-strongly suggest Nancy Pelosi and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
N/A will begin previews on Tuesday, June 11, at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater at Lincoln Center, with opening night on Sunday, June 23.
The official synopsis reads, “N/A is a whip smart battle of wills – and wits – between N, the first woman Speaker of the House, and A, the youngest woman ever elected to Congress. Inspired by real people and events,...

Keith Urban is joining the U.S. version of The Voice.
The Ripcord star, who has previously starred as a coach and a judge on the Australian version of the singing format, will become a “mega mentor” on Season 25 of the NBC series.
Urban will join coaches Chance the Rapper, Dan + Shay, John Legend and Reba McEntire to mentor the remaining artists on the show, which kicked off its latest season in February.
The teams are now preparing for the knock out rounds, having got through the battle rounds.
It comes ahead of Urban’s latest record, which is coming out later this year.
Urban was a coach on the first season of The Voice Australia in 2011, alongside Seal, Joel Madden and Delta Goodrem but left ahead of season two and was replaced by Ricky Martin. He returned for season 10, replacing Boy George, alongside Jessica Mauboy, Guy Sebastian and Rita Ora,...

Jimmie Allen held a lot of odd jobs before achieving his country music breakthrough with his debut single “Best Shot” last fall: middle school janitor, busboy, protein shake barista at a Nashville gym, season 10 “American Idol” contestant.
All of Allen’s career ups and downs helped shape the stories on his debut album for Stoney Creek Records, “Mercury Lane,” which features many co-writes from the singer as well as a stirring cover of co-manager Ash Bowers’ song “Boy Gets a Truck,” whose new Ford-sponsored music video debuted this week.
The latter song caught the attention of Ford and brand-partnerships platform Music Audience Exchange, who recently paired other country acts like Thomas Rhett with Ford F-150, Kane Brown with Dr. Pepper and U.S. Cellular with Dustin Lynch for original video campaigns that air via paid-marketing on YouTube, Facebook, Pandora and many other high-traffic sites.

While Halsey is happy for her American Music Awards nomination, she's taking note of the fact that she's one of the only women who got one.
The largest fan-voted awards show unveiled its 2017 nominee list on Thursday, which was led by Bruno Mars with eight nominations, and followed by a four-way tie for second place, with Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Ed Sheeran and The Chainsmokers getting five nods each.
However, what got the attention of many on social media, including singer Halsey -- who was nominated with The Chainsmokers for Collaboration of the Year and Favorite Pop/Rock Song -- is the large gender gap present on the nominees list. Apart from the categories specifically designated for female artists in fact, the overwhelming majority of the categories have no female nominees at all. Additionally, every act nominated for Artist of the Year is a man.
