http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/hes_baaaaaack Haven't had a chance to Slog this yet, so you may already know, but... Daniel Sullivan, the Seattle Rep's artistic director of 16 years and Seattle's golden boy, is returning in an advisory capacity while Esbjornson jumps ship. (Esbjornson is jumping ship pretty much immediately, and not sticking around through 2010, like he said he would after declining to renew his four-year contract with the theater.) Sullivan seems to be pulling a Susan Trapnell: like Susan returned to ACT to help it though its financial crisis, Danny S is returning to the Rep to shepherd it through an artistic—and perhaps...

If you're an actor, he's warm and friendly and engaging. If you're "just" a crew member, he won't even acknowledge your existence if he passes you in the hall.

From my near two decade view from the trenches, it's kinda like a Union soldier being told Fightin' Joe Hooker is back in charge. No one more perfectly embodies the hub-and-spoke New York centric development model that Seattle's gonna have to shed if it wants a seat at the grownups' table. (How's that for metaphor mess?!)
