Theater Interview: TOM MORAN (Starring in National Tour of “Tom Moran is a Big Fat Filthy Disgusting Liar”)
AN HONEST INTERVIEW ABOUT LYING Tom Moran is many things: a stage and film actor, a writer, a voice-over artist, a budding author, and a podcast host of Personality Bingo. Under the auspices of The Abbey and Culture Ireland, he’s been to Sydney and Melbourne with his one-man comedy show, Tom Moran Is a Big Fat…

Highly Recommended Theater: FIRST DATE (Point Loma Playhouse in San Diego)
I had a blind date. I waited two hours on the corner. A girl walked by. I said, “Are you Louise?’” She said, “Are you Rodney?” I said, “Yeah.” She said, ‘I’m not Louise.” — Rodney Dangerfield Perhaps the only thing less comfortable than the average official first date is if it’s a…

Dance Review: Dance Review: DIABELLI & SLACKTIDE (Twyla Tharp Diamond Jubilee at Kennedy Center)
AN EXERCISE IN JUBILATION In the midst of a Trump takeover of The Kennedy Center, thank goodness one production wasn’t canceled or withdrawn from the roster. I’m talking about Kennedy Center Honoree Twyla Tharp’s Diamond Jubilee modern dance tour. The iconic choreographer is celebrating 60 years of impeccable dance. With astounding dancers equipped with strength,…

Theater Review: TRUE WEST (Roustabouts Theatre Company at Diversionary Theatre in San Diego)
TRUE ZEST IN TRUE WEST As my sixtieth year on earth winds down, I’d like to believe those years have seasoned me with a strong degree of wisdom, patience, and finesse. As I said, I’d like to believe that, but there are two people who can reduce me to a furious, outrageous adolescent in a…

Theater Review: INTO THE WOODS (Musical Theatre West)
THE FAIRY TALES BREAK– AND THAT’S THE POINT The stories are still here. Cinderella. Jack. Little Red. Rapunzel. A Baker and his Wife, tangled in a curse and each other. Into the Woods has always worn its source material like a costume—but it keeps a blade tucked underneath. Musical Theatre West’s new production doesn’t sharpen…

TIKTOK SONGS TO ENGAGE YOUR AUDIENCE
TikTok has officially returned to Apple and Google’s U.S. app stores after a brief removal due to national security concerns. With the enforcement of a potential ban postponed, the platform remains a powerhouse for digital content, boasting over 170 million American users. At the core of TikTok’s influence is music. Songs aren’t just background noise….

Theater Review: THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE (Wisteria Theater in North Hollywood)
BEE MINUS Now playing at Wisteria Theater in North Hollywood is one of the few wonderful musicals from this century so far, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, by William Finn (music and lyrics) and Rachel Sheinkin (book). Now 20 years old, this delightful musical follows a group of middle schoolers as they struggle…

Off-Broadway Review: MASTERCLASS (NYC Skirball)
WHITEOUT NYU Skirball adheres closely to James Baldwin’s dictum: “Artists are here to disturb the peace.” With the U.S. premiere of Masterclass, Skirball’s mission has been resoundingly fulfilled. Presented by Brokentalkers & Adrienne Truscott, this provocative, 60-minute two-hander, written by Feidlim Cannon, Gary Keegan, and Truscott, is performed by two of its authors—Cannon and Truscott—presumably…

Off-Broadway Review: LAST CALL (New World Stages)
A WAR OF WORDS BETWEEN BERNSTEIN AND VON KARAJAN… AND THE AUDIENCE LOSES Peter Danish‘s Last Call at New World Stages imagines a high-stakes intellectual showdown between two musical titans—Leonard Bernstein and Herbert von Karajan—in Sacher Hotel’s Blaue Bar in Vienna, 1988. On paper, this has the makings of an electrifying clash: a liberal Jewish…

Broadway Review: THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY (Music Box)
THE PICTURE OF ASTOUNDING THEATRE I’ve been fortunate to witness some extraordinary one-person plays on Broadway. To name a few: Zoe Caldwell in Lillian, Ben Kingsley in Edmund Kean, Robert Morse in TRU, as well as Elaine Stritch at Liberty, I Am My Own Wife, and outstanding performances by John Leguizamo, Eric Bogosian, and Anna…

Concert Review: ISRAEL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA (Lahav Shani, conductor, at Segerstrom Concert Hall)
COMING HOME TO THE ISRAEL PHIL The Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra (IPO) lives in my blood. Not metaphorically. This sentiment springs from actual circumstance—a birth story twined around orchestral strings like umbilical cord. On December 6, 1966—that annus mirabilis—my mother was in her 8th month with me in Tel Aviv’s main concert hall while the Israel…

Cabaret Review: DIVINE SASS: A TRIBUTE TO SARAH VAUGHAN (Lillias White Album Release Concert at 54 Below)
QUITE A NIGHT WITH MISS WHITE The series of concerts by Lillias White at 54 Below—running nightly through March 29 (and live streamed on the 28)—is billed as Divine Sass: A Tribute to Sarah Vaughan: An Album Release Concert. But a few songs in the lively and enjoyable set weren’t connected to the honoree’s career….

Off-Broadway Review: WHO IS JIMMY PANTS? (York Theatre)
IT’LL KNOCK THE PANTS OFF O’ YOUSE Who Is Jimmy Pants? is the second production in the York’s Spring 2025 “New2NY” series, presented at the Theater at St. Jean’s on East 76th Street—a welcome upgrade from their former home at Saint Peter’s Church, which was unfortunately lost to flooding in 2021. This 90-minute concert-style staged…

Film Review: TIME TRAVEL IS DANGEROUS (directed by Chris Reading; British Sci-Fi Comedy Opens in the US on November 11, 2025))
TIME AND TIME AGAIN, THIS FILM IS WILD, WITTY, AND WICKEDLY FUNNY Here’s a British delight that serves up a deliciously daffy mix of cunning comedy and science fiction—let’s call it “Sly-Fi,” a perfectly fitting term for this kooky genre blend. The triumphant mockumentary, Time Travel Is Dangerous, dares to be loopy and over the…

Dance Review: FRANKENSTEIN (San Francisco Ballet)
STITCHING TOGETHER BEAUTY AND HORROR: SF BALLET’S ELECTRIFYING FRANKENSTEIN San Francisco Ballet’s Frankenstein, a co-production with The Royal Ballet of London, had its world premiere in London in 2016 and its American premiere with SF Ballet the following year. Now returning for an engagement through March 26 (with an encore April 26 to May 4),…

Dance Review: HUBBARD STREET DANCE CHICAGO (The Joyce Theater in New York City)
HUBBA-HUBBA HUBBARD STREET “It’s not magic, but it should seem like it is.” That advice came from a veteran jazz musician in the 1930s as he counseled a young aspiring player. In many ways, that nugget of truth applies to the world as dance as well. Closing in on its fifth decade, few contemporary dance…

MUSIC BIOPICS — BALANCING FACT AND FICTION IN CINEMATIC STORYTELLING
Why do biopics about famous musicians come out so often in the film industry? The popularity of these films is based on the emotional involvement of viewers: they feel nostalgic looking at the musicians and listening to the songs that have been on their playlist for years. Moreover, you can learn about the interesting lives…

Theater Review: CABARET (NTC Playhouse in Novato)
WHEN THE GRIM PAST WAS A PARTY Willkommen to the intimate 99-seat NTC Playhouse in Novato, transformed into the seedy Kit Kat Klub in pre-war Berlin. While poverty, unemployment, and a sense of doom fill the streets, free-wheeling sex, drugs, and jazz entertain inside the club. Unpleasant political developments are willingly pushed aside by these…

Theater Review: THE UNRAVELING (Ghost Road Theatre)
LOOM WITH A VIEW Ghost Road Theatre’s The Unraveling pulls you into its strange, hypnotic orbit and doesn’t let go. This is a truly original work with some breathtaking theatrical coups. Ann Noble is mesmerizing as Susan, a reclusive former professor who loved teaching Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey, but modern-day students and their ever-present…
