Dance Review: MOZART DANCES (Mark Morris Dance Group at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica)
MO’ MOZART DANCES, PLEASE What a tough day I had last Thursday. No details necessary, but I was so spent it was with worry when I attended Mark Morris’s Mozart Dances at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica that I thought sleep and ennui would be my only partners. Set to three exquisite Mozart piano…

Theater Review: DANA H. (Berkeley Repertory)
ONE OF THE MOST INVENTIVE NEW PLAYS OF THE DECADE I’ve been singing the praises of Lucas Hnath‘s Dana H. ever since I first saw it three years ago in Los Angeles. Time has not altered my feelings. If anything, as the Berkeley Rep production proves, its power has not diminished in the least, and…

Theater Review: UNCLE VANYA (Pasadena Playhouse)
SAY “UNCLE!” Far be it from me to criticize Anton Chekhov. The long-deceased Russian playwright and short story writer is regarded as one of “The Greats” in all of literature; who am I to throw a dart at that great sky? It’s because of his prestige that I was actually looking forward to seeing a…

Theater Review: INTERSTATE (East West Players)
INTERPLAY In the age of A Strange Loop, the hit Broadway musical about a “Big Black Queer” it seems the time is ripe for more musicals about the gay experience, but one with transgender characters as leads? Lesbian singer-songwriter Melissa Li and transgender spoken-word artist Kit Yan formed a band named Good Asian Drivers, which…

Music Review: Ted Hearne’s PLACE (Power to the People! Festival with the LA PHIL at Disney Hall)
FINDING A PLACE AT DISNEY HALL Reviewing the contemporary theatrical oratorio Place a few years ago, Opera News Magazine suggested that Ted Hearne’s many–genred musical rumination on urban gentrification and its baleful underpinnings “seemed to arrive both at the right cultural moment and entirely too late.” As if to affirm this impression, the LA Philharmonic’s…
-
Theater Review: The Outgoing Tide (North Coast Rep in Solana Beach)
A TIDE THAT RISES SLOWLY STILL HAS POWER The description on North Coast Rep’s website for this show is quite vague and, having just come home from the program, it’s clear why. One of the great challenges in reviewing a show is revealing just enough to interest the reader, but not so much as to…

Theater Review: KING JAMES (Mark Taper Forum)
BASKETBALL BROMANCE Center Theatre Group’s winning new dramady King James — a co-production with Chicago’s Steppenwolf Company — is a must see for more than just rabid sports fans. Nobody writes a tale of two straight boys in a bromance better than Rajiv Joseph (Guards at the Taj). And his two-hander, which opened last night…

Theater Review: STOMP (National Tour)
STILL BANGING FOR THE BUCKS The incredibly basic concept behind Stomp, a phenom now in its third decade, remains: “Make a rhythm out of anything we can get our hands on that makes a sound.” (Luke Cresswell, co-founder/director). The result: four global productions, including permanent venues in New York and London’”and the rousing tour now playing…

Attraction Reviews: SUMMIT ONE VANDERBILT | ONE WORLD OBSERVATORY (New York City)
A TALE OF TWO TOWERS The area around the erstwhile World Trade Center towers may have transformed slowly, and still under construction, but the transformation is astounding around the new high-rise replacement tower, One World Trade Center, also known as the Freedom Tower, and which is now the focal point of the Lower Manhattan skyline….

New York Theater: 2022 DRAMA DESK AWARD WINNERS
AWARD WINNERS THAT STAGE AND CINEMA AGREES WITH ACROSS THE BOARD Well, well, well. Bless the 2021-2022 Drama Desk Nominating Committee. Not only were their nominations truly for achievement (versus all the awards for so-called “woke” theater from other organizations), but winners were fairly chosen, even in some very very VERY tight categories. The design…
