A Behanding in Spokane
Christopher Walken's last Broadway turn, a decade ago, was a musical affair called James Joyce's The Dead. It ended, as the novella it's based on does, with a character coming to terms with life and death. One problem with the production was t... [more] |

A Little Night Music
Hard to believe it’s over thirty-five years since the original production of "A Little Night Music" shined on Broadway. Now in a leaner, meaner version which originated at the Menier Chocolate Factory in London (also responsible for the recent succes... [more] |

A View From the Bridge
Utterly engrossing, the latest revival of "A View From the Bridge", Arthur Miller’s resounding rebuke to Kazan’s "On the Waterfront", is a lesson in understatement as art. Director Gregory Mosher leads his exemplary cast in this riveting portrayal o... [more] |

Billy Elliot
Billy Elliot's fantastic journey from the coalmines of northern England to the ballet studios of London crackles with freshness and inspiration.
Not since Annie has such a sublime young protagonist — played with depth and emotional authority... [more] |

In The Heights

Next Fall

Race
"Race", the latest from David Mamet is painfully contrived, overtly political and lightly misogynistic. But Mamet can never be accused of being shy when it comes to attacking provocative subjects and his newest entry is no exception. You may notice ... [more] |

Rock of Ages
When Cole Porter wrote the song “Anything Goes” it’s doubtful he ever imagined anything like the latest transfer from off-Broadway, “Rock of Ages”. The new eighties jukebox musical delights in its lowbrow verbiage, tasteless jokes, overt sexism and a... [more] |

The Miracle Worker
When Annie Sullivan equates “giving up” with “original sin” you know you’re in for it, as the revival of "The Miracle Worker slowly" works its way into your heart. The play was a huge hit fifty years ago and made stars of Patty Duke, as the wild chil... [more] |

West Side Story
Director Arthur Laurents has reconceived "West Side Story", the masterpiece that he (as the book writer) created, with genius director/choreographer Jerome Robbins, lyricist extraordinaire, Stephen Sondheim, and composer, Leonard Bernstein, almost fi... [more] |
