NY Review: 'In the Next Room or the vibrator play'
Sarah Ruhl's odd but somehow moving new play combines farce and drama for a challenging examination of women's sexuality in the repressive Victorian era.

Though it's centered on the timeworn cliché of the wise innocent child, Alan Ayckbourn's "My Wonderful Day" is largel... More »
With two installments still to come, it's premature to characterize Horton Foote's complete work. But if they live up... More »
Theodore Bikel's one-man show is a compelling homage from a compelling performer. More »

Broadway Reviews
Ragtime
In a season full of star vehicles, the revival of "Ragtime" rides onto Broadway with nary a box-office name and steamrollers its way to the top of the heap. More »

Finian's Rainbow
"Finian's Rainbow" is a magical production that should enchant both lovers of the Golden Age musical and those who favor more-contemporary fare. More »

Bye Bye Birdie
Roundabout Theatre Company's misbegotten revival of this classic piece of Broadway Americana is dead on arrival at the new Henry Miller's Theatre. More »

The Royal Family
George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber's 1927 comedy returns to Broadway in a riotous, over-the-top staging in which everyone from the leads to the walk-ons shines. More »

Off-Broadway Reviews
Post No Bills
Mando Alvarado's new play has a sitcom-worthy premise that's hurt more than helped by the plot's sudden dark turn. More »

Circumcise Me
Oy vey. This one-man show about converting to Judaism suffers from an orthodox sense of humor. More »

Wolves at the Window (and Other Tales of Immorality)
If only the dramaturgy of the evening matched the individual moments—a theatrical way of saying if only the whole were greater than the sum of its parts. More »

Red Sea Fish
Matt Wilkinson's new play is a complex exploration of family relationships and the imagination of the human mind, and it's been shipped here straight from Brighton. More »

Off-Off Broadway Reviews
Agamemnon
Despite courageous intentions, ponderousness and gravitas keep this production from reaching tragic dimensions. More »

Mine
The glaring flaw in "Mine" is that it's almost entirely static. The three players emerge at the end just as they were in that first scene, perhaps a little worse for wear. More »

Savannah Black & Blue
Playwright Raymond Jones has done his homework in telling this tale of a girl from the projects who becomes a New York City policewoman. But despite some good performances, the arc of her progress lacks passion, and its academic roots are all too evident. More »

Cabaret & Dance Reviews
Peter and the Wolf
For the first time ever, the Prokofiev estate has allowed the composer's "Peter and the Wolf" to be performed in conjunction with a new work. More »

Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company: Serenade/The Proposition
In its New York premiere, the pithy 60-minute work is splendidly rendered by the remarkably diverse and talented Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company. More »

Morphoses/The Wheeldon Company: Program A
Sharply attuned to the entertainment sensibilities of contemporary audiences, Wheeldon assembled a program that many young people today would be very comfortable attending. More »

Charlie's Angels
The show has nothing to do with the popular television series; the Charlie in this case is revolutionary jazz saxophonist Charlie Parker. More »
