This week’s new entertainment releases include new albums from Ed Sheeran and The War on Drugs as well as “Army of Thieves,” a prequel to Zack Snyder’s “Army of the Dead,” which invites viewers to join a Europe-trotting heist.

The series kicks off Thursday with “The Thanksgiving Play” by Larissa FastHorse, directed by Leigh Silverman starring Reeves, Bobby Cannavale, Heidi Schreck and Alia Shawkat. The next show — on April 8 — will feature “Angry, Raucous and Shamelessly Gorgeous” by Pearl Cleage directed by Camille A.

The musical leads the Tony Awards nominations with 15 nods in a pandemic-shortened season. The dozen nods make “Slave Play” the most nominated play in Tony history. The nominations were pulled from just 18 eligible plays and musicals, a fraction of the 34 shows the season before. The 2020 Tony Awards ceremony will be broadcast digitally and take place later this year, at a date still to be announced.

She was in “Weeds,” and won an Emmy as well as a Tony and two Golden Globes. Now Mary Louise Parker is an author. Her new book is a memoir titled, “Dear Mr. You.” It’s an introspective look back at the men who’ve influenced her life -- her father, most of all.

Tony winner Mary-Louise Parker joins Bruce Willis, who makes his Broadway debut this fall, to announce the nominees for major categories. "An American in Paris," "Hand to God," "Something Rotten!" and "The King and I" were among the nominees. Contributor, actor and playwright Jamie Wax joins “CBS This Morning” to discuss this year’s contenders.
