'Degenerates' Off Broadway Review: Virgin Misogynists Get the Play They Deserve (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 1961, Dirk Bogarde shocked the movie world when he deigned to play a gay character in the film “Victim,” often lauded as the first British film to deal with the subject of homosexuality sympathetically. Today, the film about gays being blackmailed doesn’t look quite so positive. It essentially blames this kind of extortion on other homosexuals. We learn that the leader of the blackmail ring in “Victim” is gay himself, because he plays classic music at home and his living room décor includes a
'School Girls' Broadway Review: Denée Benton Isn't Just Mean, She's a Teenage Lady Macbeth (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When did we first hear the term “chick flick”? Wikipedia suggests it was probably sometime in the late 1980s when movies like “Dirty Dancing,” “Beaches,” “Steel Magnolias” and “When Harry Met Sally” flooded the market. Something similar is going on in the theater now with plays like Bess Wohl’s “Liberation,” Jocelyn Bioh’s “Jaja’s African Hair Braiding,” Kimberly Belflower’s “John Proctor Is the Villain,” and Bioh’s “School Girls,” which preceded those other three titles by a few years and was q
'The Saviors' Off Broadway Review: Altar Boys Are Much Nicer Than They Used to Be (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There’s an altar boy, Michael, who’s a very good Catholic. And there’s another altar boy, Paul, who’s a very good Christian. They’re best friends, but that divide between what’s good for the Church and what’s good for mankind splits into an enormous chasm in the aptly titled “The Saviors.” Bubba Weiler’s new one-act play received its world premiere Monday at the Atlantic Theater Company. Whether God exists, or not, gets more stage time here than in a vintage Ingmar Bergman movie, especially when
'Broad Strokes' Off Broadway Review: Cat Cohen Delights With a Near-Death Experience (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The big surprise isn’t her subject matter. It’s that she sings about having a stroke at age 32. If Beyoncé or Taylor Swift sang about having “a hole in my heart,” it would be just another lovesick anthem. With Cat Cohen, she literally had a hole in her heart that led to a stroke just as she was about to perform at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2023. Her wonderfully performed (and titled) one-person show “Broad Strokes” opened Monday at the Lucille Lortel Theatre. Comics often throw some bit o
'Just in Time' Broadway Review: Jeremy Jordan Makes This Show Better Than Ever (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Portraying Bobby Darin in “Just in Time,” Jonathan Groff played the singer-actor as a nice guy. Jeremy Jordan replaces Groff and plays Darrin as a bad boy, which is much closer to the real man. Indeed, the musical’s book, by Warren Leight and Isaac Oliver, keeps telling us that Darin is full of the devil. Not only was he difficult to work with, the parents of girlfriend Connie Francis and wife Sandra Dee didn’t want anything to do with this singing satyr. As they saw him, Darin was a stud who wa
