What we don’t know is why he’s there, when he will leave, and what state he is in right now. McConnell, 84, has been hospitalized for a full three weeks.

When Slam Frank opened last September at the Asylum, a 150-seat Off-Broadway performance space in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen district, it had no marketing budget and no marquee actors in its cast.
