TV or Not TV

My review of Rinne Groff's new play at the Public is here. Her work stood out at Louisville a few years ago, and it's nice to see her getting the Public forum (though my peers have been mixed, here and here).

Nothing To Be Done

A thoroughly creditable production of a 20th century classic, reviewed here. (It did put me in mind, though, of another revival I adored.)

Flood Plain

Another gem.

Rocky Mountain Low

To answer a snide comment below: A show like this new John Denver musical is not why I came to New York. But a job's a job.

Free Spot

The new musical Bingo apparently had its start at the Hermosa Beach Playhouse. Not sorry I missed it there. My review is here. One good West Coast import that I didn't mind, though: the peerless Beth Malone.

Doleful Matter Merrily Set Down

From the same creative well as the Broadway Sweeney Todd, a bangup production of The Winter's Tale, reviewed here.

Hear Me Singing "Yes"

My review of the best Gothic chamber musical ever is here. It measures up quite well to the London production, recalled here.
