Theater Review: DON’T DRESS FOR DINNER (North Coast Rep)
DON’T BOTHER FOR DINNER The North Coast Repertory Theater is offering two hours of exceedingly lightweight summer theater in the French farce Don’t Dress for Dinner. And being a typical French farce, the play revels almost exclusively in ostentatious slapstick with an erotic edge. My large Sunday matinee audience seemed to love every unsubtle moment…

Theater Review: THE LORD OF THE RINGS: A MUSICAL TALE (Chicago Shakespeare Theater)

Theater Review: THE SPY WHO WENT INTO REHAB (Pacific Resident Theatre in Venice)
ESPIONAGE COMES TO GROUP THERAPY There’s a pretty good reason why the world premiere of Gregg Ostrin’s The Spy Who Went Into Rehab, onstage at Pacific Resident Theatre in Venice, has been extended. It’s a darned good farcical and absurdist comedy. The studly, well-cast Satiar Pourvasei plays Cross. Simon Cross. He’s been dropped off at…
