Grounded

Julie Taymor and Anne Hathaway: yep, it's worth going. My review is here.

Happyish

My review of the new Showtime series Happyish, or at least its first three episodes, is here.

The Visit

If only for Chita Rivera, go go go to The Visit. My review's here.

Airline Highway

What a letdown Lisa D'Amour's new show is after the excellent Detroit. Click here for the full account.

Something Rotten!

Sitting at Something Rotten, it felt glaringly obvious: This is a big fat hit. Click here for my review.

Doctor Zhivago

Oof, what a boring show! My review's of the misfire is here.

My favorite meat and potatoes TV shows

Just that: TV's answer to comfort food from someone who watched all 10 episodes of The Last Ship this weekend. Click here for the list.

Living on Love

Renée Fleming and Douglas Sills are well matched in this new boulevard comedy. My review's here.

Fun Home redux

I'm very happy Fun Home is out there on Broadway, even if I don't share the delirious love many of my colleagues have for the show. My review's here.

Orphan Black

As a promising show ever deteriorated as rapidly as Orphan Black? It seems as if its creators just don't realize why we all got hooked in the first place. My review of S3's first two eps is here.

The King and I

What a gorgeous treat this revival is! Except for, you know, half of the title. More in my review here.

Finding Neverland

After much advance publicity Harvey Weinstein's debut theatrical production has finally opened on Broadway. My unimpressed review is here.

Hamlet

I didn't care all that much for Peter Sarsgaard's previous stage outings at CSC but I was impressed with his take on Hamlet. Too bad the rest of the production wasn't as good as his performance. My review's here.

It Shoulda Been You

Tough to see such a good cast wasted in such a non-starter of a show. My review's here.

Ghosts

Nothing can top Ingmar Bergman's Ghosts, seen at BAM in 2003, but Lesley Manville is pretty damn good in Richard Eyre's production. My review's here.

An American in Paris

An American in Paris aims for something elusive on Broadway: beauty. A little bit of brawn would have helped, too. My review's here.

interview with Anna Chlumsky

I'd been familiar with Anna Chlumsky's career, of course, but I gained a new appreciation for her after seeing her in David Adjmi's 3C. Click here for my brief chat with Chlumsky, as Veep starts again.

Clinton The Musical

Thank god for Kenneth Starr, who tried to sink Clinton -- The Administration but almost saves Clinton -- The Musical. Click here for my review.

Wolf Hall

Wolf Hall is long and feels longer. There's a limit to my taste for British period drama, and this show is pushing at it. My review's here.

Buzzer

Gentrification comes to the Public Theater in the new play Buzzer. My lukewarm review's here.
