HiLo North Adams Welcomes Comedy Night to the Region
HiLo North Adams entertained a near-capacity audience on Thursday night for its inaugural Comedy Night, headlined by comedian Monroe Martin.
Review: 'West Side Story' at Barrington Stage: Wow!
Barrington Stage has gone all out with this production. It has a cast of 27, and when they're all dancing, filling the stage with energy, grace and simply perfect body lines, I realized that even the latest Broadway revival in 2009 wasn't in the same league. The depth of talent is staggering.
Review: 'Hair' is a Must See
This production of "Hair" is far more than good. It is astonishing! The unbelievable energy of the 15-member cast not only brings that troubling and exciting time of our history to life on the stage, it reawakens our spirits and our souls. We want to get on the stage to dance and protest with them.
Review: Bernstein Goes to 'Town' at Tanglewood
The performance took place at Tanglewood on the evening of July 7 before a huge, enthusiastic audience. It was part of this summer's Bernstein 100 birthday celebration. Even the weather was in the cool, comfortable 60s.
Barrington's 'Fiddler' Takes Musical To New Heights
Oscar portrays Tevye so perfectly, one can only think of that classic show business phrase: "Brad Oscar is Tevye."
'Cassandra Speaks': Randolph Shines as WWII Journalist
In "Cassandra Speaks," Tod Randolph slips into the character of Dorothy Thompson as if it were her own life being portrayed on stage.
'Santaland Diaries' Spirited, Campy Christmas Romp
Winkles just lets loose, and as a result the laughs come faster and louder this year. Dignity be damned, full speed ahead!
'Asher Lev' a Heartfelt Struggle Between Faith & Art
His portrayal is so real, so organic it did not feel like acting at all, but simply the artist speaking to the audience.
BTF Comedy 'In the Mood' Serves Up Frothy Fun
So if the latest news is leaving you cranky and a bit out of sorts, just buy two tickets and call me in the morning.
'Best of Enemies' Clash Over Civil Rights
His approach to detailing the civil rights era comes to life in a way that more scholarly approaches would tend to bland out.
There's Merriment on the Moors in 'Hound of Baskervilles'
It is so funny, so over the top, the only metaphor that seems to fit is when you shake up a can of carbonated soda and pop the top.
'Sylvia,' About a Dog, Unleashes Howls of Laughter
In the BTG's brilliant new production, Rachel Bay Jones shamelessly immerses herself into the role of the shaggy seducer.
Shakespeare's 'Romeo & Juliet' an Odd Mix of Old and New
Wrenched from the relative comfort of 16th-century Verona, their costumes bleached out in most scenes to ghostly white, director Daniela Varon takes a young cast on an amazing journey into her personal imagination.
Randy Harrison Rocks Berkshires In The Who's 'Tommy'
My delight with the show was pretty unexpected, too, as I found tears of joy suddenly streaming down my face.
Review: 'Moonchildren' at the Berkshire Theatre Festival
Staged in the smaller Unicorn Theatre at the Berkshire Theatre Festival, the play is no more mainstream today than during its first American outing at Washington, D.C.'s Arena Stage.
