"Brothers & Sisters" scoop: Just what is Chad Barry up to?
Posted by Michael Jensen, Editor on January 16, 2009

Jason Lewis as Chad Barry 

Ever since Michael Ausiello leaked word that Chad Barry (Jason Lewis) would be popping up for an episode of Brothers & Sisters, tongues have been wagging about just what is up with that? Is Kevin going to return to his "can't commit" persona and cheat on Scotty (Luke Macfarlane)? Has Chad reappeared with some nefarious plot to break up our favorite gay couple? Is Chad now an ex-gay who has come to convert both Kevin and Scotty?

I'd did some digging and learned some very interesting details!

Read more after the jump!

Kevin is not going to cheat on Scotty, and Chad did not turn up to seduce Scotty thereby causing trouble in the Walker/Wandell household. But that doesn't mean that sex won't be central to what goes on between the three men. Whatever takes place (and I can't say too much) does cause Kevin and Scotty to have a serious discussion about an issue dealt with by many gay men in relationships.

Kevin: What do you think about it?
Scotty
: I asked you first!


Any guesses as to exactly what goes down?

Luke Macfarlane to play F. Scott Fitzgerald in "The Jazz Age"
Posted by Brian Juergens, Contributor on January 14, 2009

Nothing says "Good morning, sunshine!" like the mental image of one of primetime's cutest gays dressed up in spats and gloves, stinking of gin and causing all sorts of mischief at home and abroad.

So imagine my delight when I read this news on Playbill that Luke Macfarlane (Brothers & Sisters) will be heading the cast of the LA production of The Jazz Age, playing great American author F. Scott Fitzgerald.

The play apparently looks at the tumultuous personal lives of Fitzgerald, his troubled wife, Zelda, and equally volatile author Ernest Hemingway, "punctuated by the pulsating beat of a live musical trio." Well pardon me for saying so, but if I were in the audience sharing oxygen with a dolled-up Macfarlane the musical trio wouldn't be the only one producing a pulsating beat!

Wait ... I don't think that came out right...

"Brothers and Sisters" Star Macfarlane to Head Cast of The Jazz Age
By Andrew Gans
13 Jan 2009 
Luke MacfarlaneThe Blank Theatre Company in association with Jana Robbins Productions will present the West Coast Premiere of The Jazz Age beginning Feb. 7 at The Blank's 2nd Stage Theatre in Hollywood, CA.

Directed by Michael Matthews, Allan Knee's play will officially open Feb. 12. Performances will continue through March 22.

Luke Macfarlane, who plays Scotty Wandell on ABC's "Brothers and Sisters," will head the cast as F. Scott Fitzgerald with Jeremy Gabriel as Ernest Hemingway and Heather as Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald. Ian Whitcomb and his Bungalow Boys will accompany the play with an original score by Grammy winner Whitcomb.

"F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway. Zelda Fitzgerald," read The Jazz Age press notes. "Literary history's most intriguing characters. This sexy new play goes inside their minds to fantasize on the question of 'inspiration.' Punctuated by the pulsating beat of a live musical trio, The Jazz Age asks the compelling question 'Why do we do what we do?'"

Show times will be Thursday-Saturday at 8 PM and Sunday at 2 PM.

Tickets, priced $22-$28, are available by calling (323) 661-9827 or by visiting www.TheBlank.com. The Blank's 2nd Stage Theatre is located at 6500 Santa Monica Boulevard (on Theatre Row, between Highland and Vine at Wilcox) in Hollywood, CA.
