Dance Review: JUNGLE BOOK REIMAGINED (BroadStage, Santa Monica; U.S. opening of Global Tour)
MOWGLI, GET YOUR GUN Brilliant dancing gets waylaid by a chaotic and illegible narrative in this multimedia eco-morality play. Two words are redefining the medium of dance: Video Projection. In lieu of expensive and unwieldy portable sets, a new generation of traveling productions requires only a theater’s built-in scrim and cyclorama – and an animator…

Theater Review: DEATHTRAP (International City Theatre in Long Beach)

Best known for Rosemary’s Baby and The Stepford…

Highly Recommended Concert: AN ALPINE SYMPHONY WITH SALONEN (LA Phil at Disney Hall)
A WORLD PREMIERE AND ONE OF THE GREATEST TONE POEMS EVER WRITTEN I never knew this until researching the upcoming LA Phil program this weekend, but the connection between Nico Muhly and Philip Glass became established in the mid-2000s, when Glass employed Muhly as an assistant! Muhly certainly soaked up minimalism but he has never…

Opera Review: THE BARBER OF SEVILLE (LA Opera)
LA OPERA’S THE BARBER OF SEVILLE MORE THAN MAKES THE CUT In the world of opera, few works shine as brightly and endure as enduringly as Gioachino Rossini’s comic 1816 masterpiece, The Barber of Seville.

San Diego Theater Review: DEATHTRAP (Lamplighters Community Theatre)
PLAYWRITING CAN BE A DEADLY BUSINESS Tony-nominee Deathtrap ran for over four years (1978-1982) on Broadway, with good reason. Ira Levin’s script is intellectual, witty, full of twists, and – done right – full of suspense. I recall being on the edge of my seat in 1981, catching Farley Granger (notably of Hitchcock’s Rope) and…
