WAYS TO MAKE YOUR HOME A BETTER PLACE TO UNWIND
Your home is supposed to be the place where you get to switch off, but it doesn’t always work out that way.

Theater Review: STONEWALL’S BUST (Best Medicine Rep Theater Company / Bethesda, MD)
A COMEDY THAT GOES BUST A clever premise about Southern traditions and family prejudices gets stonewalled by performances that try too hard for laughs Stonewall’s Bust at The Writer’s Center in Bethesda has all the ingredients for an entertaining farce: a broken historical artifact, a desperate cover-up, eccentric characters, ghosts, and a family whose peculiar…

Opera Review: DON GIOVANNI (Lyric Opera)
A THIRD TIME IS TOO MUCH FOR THIS DON A superb cast cannot disguise the problems in Robert Falls’ revival of Mozart’s opera, whose treatment of sexual violence feels increasingly dated This Robert Falls-directed production of Don Giovanni was the first opera I reviewed upon my arrival in Chicago in 2014. I mostly loved it…

Dance Review: OSCAR (The Australian Ballet at New York City Center)
A KISS, A SIGH, BUT WHERE’S THE DANCE?

Theater Review: I AM THE WIND (Theatre Y)
BLOWN AWAY Jon Fosse’s haunting meditation on life, companionship, and depression becomes an extraordinary theatrical experience in the hands of two remarkable actors In a misty space, two roughly hewn planks of wood swing from the ceiling, suspended by nautical ropes.

Chicago Theater Review: KOWALSKI (Lookingglass Theatre Company)

Theater Review: ALL MY SONS (Lyric Stage, Boston)
WHAT’S BIGGER THAN THE FAMILY?

Theater Review: PETER PAN GOES WRONG (San Francisco Playhouse)
PETER PAN GOES WRONG GOES VERY, VERY WRONG A two-hour farcical flight to Neverland that you may wish had never taken off San Francisco Playhouse’s current fall offering is Peter Pan Goes Wrong, a comedy that, for me, produces considerably more aggravation than laughter. It’s brought to you by the same people who produced 2024’s…
