It's about time, since everyone knew and no one "cared." Why did he wait so long? Did he think people wouldn't go to a Broadway musical if they thought someone gay had worked on it? Then they wouldn't go to ANY Broadway musical. I think the old school approach of pretending you're just being private (when in fact you're worried it might hurt your career) is just increasingly absurd and indefensible, whether you're a TV weatherman, a TV anchorman or an Oscar winning actress. At least someone like John Kander is 79 years old and can reasonably claim they come from a different generation. But anyone under 50 has no excuse.
