Blue Cowboy

David Cale's new show is soooooo good! Please go see it. My rave is here.

Paranormal Activity

I love scares at the theater, so it was really exciting to talk with Felix Barrett and Levi Holloway of their new show, Paranormal Activity. Click here for the deets and the cool videos.

Cut for space: Barrett is staging an immersive Arcane in China — yes, based on the Netflix series!

Theater to stream, fall edition

 Tons of great stuff to check out on the streaming-theater front this month! I picked some new (and vintage) releases for your enjoyment, starting with George Clooney's Good Night, and Good Luck.

A link to a podcast for a change

Jesse Green and I were on the Times' Sunday Special podcast to talk about experiencing theater, just not on stage. Yeah, audio counts, too! Here's a link to the link. 

Jen Tullock

I talked to the actress and writer Jen Tullock about her new solo play Nothing Can Take You From the Hand of God. Religion and homosexuality and video: there was a lot to parse. Thataway for the feature.

Kiss of the Spider Woman

The movie based on the musical based on the book that also inspired a play and another movie is finally out! Jennifer Lopez: meh. Yeah, I was surprised, too. My review for the Times is here.

And Then We Were No More

 Like many people, I very much enjoy Tim Blake Nelson as an actor (we don't see him enough in The Lowdown!). But his play And Then We Were No More, at La MaMa, is the kind of hot mess we don't actually see often. My review is here.

James Graham's Punch

I had serious issues with James Graham's play Punch, which is on Broadway. It's tough to do a show about reparative justice without presenting both sides evenly. Click here for my review in the NY Times.

Natalie Palamides

Belatedly posting my profile of Natalie Palamides, whose show Weer, at the Cherry Lane Theater, is one of the hits of the fall here in NYC. I couldn't be a bigger fan.

Fall for science-fiction movies

Er, I'm getting around to posting a link to my sci-fi column for September, just as the one for October is about to drop. It's a time warp!
