Film Reviews: NEW VOICES FILMMAKER GRANT SHOWCASE (Shorts Program, NewFest 37)
SHORT TAKES ON QUEER SHORTS In brief, the tricky thing about a short film is that it can be difficult to make it feel fully satisfying. The more engaging ones sometimes seem to end too soon, frustratingly, just when one is starting to feel involved — like eating a delicious appetizer with no main course…

Theater Review: CHURCHILL (Calderwood Pavilion at Boston Center for the Arts)
TWO LONG HOURS WITH THE FORMER MAN OF THE HOUR There is no question that Churchill was a hero who played a major role in saving the world from Hitler’s fascism (though perhaps not as big a role as Stalin, but let’s not go down that road). Nor is there any doubt that David Payne,…

CASINO HEISTS VS. REAL LIFE: WHAT HOLLYWOOD GETS WRONG (AND RIGHT)
Hollywood’s most stylish heist crews make vaults pop open like champagne corks, while the audience basks in suspense and swagger. But the modern gambling universe is far less about laser grids and far more about regulated, encrypted play on online casino platforms. The gap between the spectacle of the silver screen and the safeguards of…

Broadway Review: PUNCH (Manhattan Theatre Club at Samuel J. Friedman Theatre)
A KNOCKOUT OF CONSCIENCE You always “step in,” says Jacob — that’s what you do when your mates are about to fight. Growing up in The Meadows, Nottingham, that lesson kept him safe (well, safer) than some. But now the loyalty that once protected him has undone him: a single punch, thrown in defense of…

Theater Review: CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY (Palm Canyon Theater)
A SUGAR RUSH WITHOUT THE GOLDEN TICKET Palm Canyon Theatre kicks off its 39th season with David Greig‘s musical adaption of Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, a production that’s as colorful and sugary as a Wonka Bar — but often hollow once you bite in. Directed by Se Layne, the production bursts with…

Off-Broadway Review: THE HONEY TRAP (Irish Repertory Theatre)

Dance Review: GRAHAM100 (Martha Graham Dance Company at The Soraya)
GRAHAM100 DANCES THE CENTURY AWAKE Every analysis of 20th century American arts puts Martha Graham in a small class of visionaries who changed the world, with several calling her the “Picasso of Dance.” And since Martha Graham began her dance life in Los Angeles in 1911, it’s not a surprise that the Martha Graham Dance Company…
-
Theater Review: DIAL M FOR MURDER (Drury Lane Theatre in Oakbrook Terrace)
A KILLER REVIVAL Drury Lane’s Dial M for Murder may be set in 1950s London, but under Adam Immerwahr‘s taut direction, the suspense feels freshly sharpened. Playwright Jeffrey Hatcher’s adaptation keeps the bones of Frederick Knott’s 1952 thriller intact while daringly reimagining one key element: Margot Wendice’s affair is now with another woman. It’s a…
-
Theater Review: ANTHROPOLOGY (Rogue Machine Theatre)

-
Theater Review: JAJA’S AFRICAN HAIR BRAIDING (Mark Taper Forum)
BRAIDS AND BELONGING Some plays don’t announce themselves with spectacle. They invite you in through a metal grate, into a cramped Harlem salon where the air smells of braiding gel and the television plays Nollywood movies on loop. Before you know it, you’re laughing, aching, realizing how invested you’ve become in the fate of women…

THE BIG SCREEN VS. THE BETTING SCREEN: DEPICTIONS OF ONLINE CASINO IN FILM
From glamorous Monte Carlo scenes to neon-lit poker tables, Hollywood has long had a love affair with gambling.

Let’s be real – choosing an durable iPhone 17 case feels like navigating a minefield.

Theater Review: MACBETH (Actors’ Shakespeare Project)
SOMETHING WICKED GOOD THIS WAY COMES You’ve probably seen one or more productions of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth before, but you’ve likely never seen one like this Christopher V.
