The good news is that almost all the seven short pieces (averaging 10 minutes each) in RTB’s 2023 menu of theatrical hor d'oeuvres justify their place in the program well enough. Nobody will leave hungry for diverting entertainment.  

On Thursday, September 8th, I had the pleasure of seeing THE EXONERATED at The Ridgefield Theater Barn, in Ridgefield, CT.  This show is amazing, based on true stories, and sends some deeply impacting messages that touch the emotions to the core, in a good way.

Spoken by Hamlet, this quote, and so many more that have become common-place, will be heard during Curtain Call's Shakespeare on the Green presentation, of Hamlet, July 12 through 22. Curtain Call is thrilled to bring this searing Shakespearean tragedy of murder and revenge to Stamford for its 15th annual free, outdoor production.

More than just the story of a couple of old guys meeting daily on a park bench, I'M NOT RAPPAPORT is a touching look at an unlikely friendship and a glimpse into the psychological struggle to keep our sense of self while railing against the physical changes and emotional hardships of old age.

'Just like late seasons, early growing seasons like 2013 can have their own weather hazards from bud break through ripening,' observed Tom Ferrell, Executive Director, Spring Mountain District Association.

It was a season that gratified even the most persnickety winemaker.'
