Theater Review: THE CIRCLE (Greenway Court)
A FAMILY REUNION TURNS INTO A PRESSURE COOKER A fascinating first act can’t survive a nearly three-hour drift into exhaustion Stacey Martino Rivera’s world premiere The Circle at Greenway Court Theatre begins with a smart framing device: a teenage presentation by Ana (Ava Rivera) on restorative culture that gestures toward indigenous healing circles—and then cuts…

Film Review: LOONEY TUNES: THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP (Directed by Peter Browngardt)
DUCK, COVER, AND TRY NOT TO THINK TOO HARD A loving homage to Bob Clampett that never quite matches the originals When I first heard about Looney Tunes: The Day the Earth Blew Up, my immediate reaction was, “Oh no, why would they make a Porky and Daffy feature for today’s audiences? There is no…

Concert Review: ESPERANZA SPALDING (Well-Being Concert at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Room)
ESPERANZA SPALDING’S HOMEMADE FIELD OF LOVE A communal cleansing at Carnegie Hall Stepping out at night this winter requires real chutzpah because New York City is absolutely freezing, but you can always find small treasures that warm you through both the weather and these bleak political times. I was lucky enough to stumble upon one…

Theater Review: HAIR (Palm Canyon Theatre)
THE AGE OF AQUARIUS RETURNS TO PALM SPRINGS A vibrant production overcomes a frustrating book Palm Canyon Theatre’s (PCT’s) productions are always top-notch, with excellent singing, dancing, and acting. Hair, which opened last weekend, is no exception. The musical is a rollicking celebration of the hippie movement of the 1960s which took the theatre world…

Off-Broadway Review: AN IDEAL HUSBAND (Storm Theatre at A.R.T./New York Theatres)
WITNESSING WILDE’S WONDERFUL WIT IS ALWAYS WELCOME Storm Theatre delivers elegance and precision, if not always sparkle Lurking under the characters’ control, courtesies and curtseys, calculated comments, formal wear and formalities, etiquette, etc., are their real feelings and fears that forced smiles with gritted teeth and British stiff-upper-lip mask. Mocking manners and marriage in the…

Opera Review: ABDUCTION FROM THE SERAGLIO (Pacific Opera Project)
MOZART MEETS THE FINAL FRONTIER Pacific Opera Project boldly goes where singspiel has gone before Begin with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s 1789 complex and comic singspiel Die Entführung aus dem Serail, aka Abduction from the Seraglio, commissioned by the Habsburg monarch Joseph II, who famously complained to Mozart, “Too many notes.” Now take Gene Roddenberry’s visionary…

Theater Review: HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING (San Diego Musical Theatre)
HOW TO SUCCEED IN PRODUCING A MUSICAL Offices tend not to be much fun, which is why they are ripe for exploring undertones of emotion and comedy in scripts like Office Space, Working Girl, 9 to 5, and NBC’s The Office. Throw in some music (okay, a LOT of music) and dynamic choreography and you’ve got a…

Theater Review: HOLIDAY (Goodman Theatre)
A SAVVY, GLORIOUS UPDATE It took three productions, but Goodman’s Centennial Season has finally hit its stride. Pour one out for Richard Greenberg, one of the great American playwrights of the last several decades, who, even after his death last year, has graced us with a stellar update of a screwball gem from 1928. Philip…

Theater Review: THREE COCONUTS (West Coast Jewish Theatre in Santa Monica)
SHABBAT, SLAPSTICK, AND THREE SUITORS IN 1968 CHICAGO The comedy cracks open plenty of laughs, then lets the shell sit too long. A domineering Jewish mother, her sharp-tongued teenage son, three oddball suitors, a hippie pimp, and two Chicago cops walk onto a stage. Chaos follows. The question is whether the play knows when to…

COMPARING ODI AND T20 APPROACHES: KEY TACTICAL DIFFERENCES
A cricket ball is a small object with an oversized ego. Give it 50 overs, and it becomes a novel with subplots, slow turns, and a late twist that feels earned. Give it 20 overs, and it turns into a headline that won’t sit still, a story that keeps changing its mind. ODI and T20…

Theater Review: THE DANCE OF DEATH (Steppenwolf)
It’s the little ways you try together; cry together; lie together—that make perfect relationships – Stephen Sondheim, Company Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, in a high stone tower, there lived a beautiful woman who hated her husband of twenty-five years and waited every day for him…

Boston Theater Review: LITTLE WOMEN (Actors’ Shakespeare Project)
LITTLE PATIENCE FOR LITTLE WOMEN Girls interrupted, potential unrealized Actors’ Shakespeare Project is an esteemed local theater company here in Greater Boston and frankly one of my favorites. Kate Hamill, one of the most produced living playwrights in the United States, is also one of my favorite playwrights. Not everyone loves the way she applies…

Theater Review: OF MICE AND MEN (Lamplighters)
HOPE WITH CALLOUSED HANDS: A QUIET MASTERPIECE REVISITED John Steinbeck’s play Of Mice and Men came quickly after the success of his novella by the same name. In fact, the play opened on Broadway in 1937 while the book was still on best sellers lists. In each telling, Steinbeck draws upon his own teenage experiences…

Off-Broadway Review: AI YAH GOY VEY! – ADVENTURES OF A DIM SUN IN SEARCH OF HIS WANTON FATHER (A.R.T./New York Theatres)
DIM SUM, DAD JOKES, AND DOWNTOWN DELIRIUM It’s ridiculous, but Richard Chang’s solo show serves up wordplay, warmth, and a wonderfully wild cultural mashup. ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ “It’s called a Yamaha,” Richard Chang jokes while pointing to his yarmulke. This and many other puns and plays on words…

Theater Review: MY LIFE AS A COWBOY (North American Premiere at Open Space Arts)
“A teasin’ squeezin’ pleasin’ kinda time.” — Shania Twain As drama goes, you can’t get more low stakes than the driving event of Hugo Timbrell’s My Life as A Cowboy, now playing at the tiny Open Space Arts theater in Uptown, and extended to March. Conor, a seventeen-year-old gay man in Croydon, a dreary suburb…
