Off-Off-Broadway Review

Living in a Musical

This benighted production proves to be a work of gob-smacking incompetence.

Order

Christopher Stetson Boal's new play wins points for originality, audacious theatricality, and brave and talented playwriting, even as it also frustrates us.

The Little Death: Vol. 1

This eroticized electro-opera about Christian chastity has loud fun but peaks early, a victim of its lack of a defined storyline.

NY Review: 'The Stranger to Kindness'

David Stallings' "The Stranger to Kindess," part of Frigid New York, employs too many clichés in its depiction of the loneliness of the urban jungle.

Standing Up: Bathroom Talk & Other Stuff We Learn From Dad
