The Death of the Provincetown Playhouse; or as John Sexton Says, "Gotcha, Suckers!"

UPDATE: If you want to do something immediately to help stop the destruction of the Provincetown Playhouse by New York University, please, please visit this link -- http://nyc.gov/html/mail/html/maillpc.html -- and fill out the form. Make it clear to the Landmarks Preservation Commission that if they refuse to act in any way at all, even to issue a statement, all members of the commission will be subject to ethical scrutiny by the preservation community and the citizenry of New York City as a whole.

Here's the link again:

The New York Times today has coverage on the latest news and community action regarding the imminent death of the Provincetown Playhouse.
