Review: WHO IS AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? at Grand Théâtre

The play focuses on four characters, as they meet for drinks after a university faculty party. Martha (Anna Steffens) and George (Luc Feit) are a dysfunctional and bitter middle-aged couple. At Martha’s suggestion, Nick (Benjamin Kaygun) and Honey (Jil Devresse) are invited over after the academic event for what could have been a friendly get-together.

Review: PROBLEMS BETWEEN SISTERS at Studio Theatre

The submerged and, often, long-sublimated divisions and resentments and life motifs of two estranged sisters come to the fore in the visceral and joltingly immersive play entitled Problems Between Sisters. The domestic squabbles of siblings have long been given ample space in plays, films, and novels but, in this fine Studio Theatre production, the playwright Julia May Jonas delves into a feminist mirroring and elucidation of themes from playwright Sam Shepard’s well-known play True West. In this intriguing play, the battling brothers become two sisters, California becomes Vermont and screenwriting becomes visual and performance art.

Review: Exquisite THE HOURS by Puts Triumphs Again at the Met under Watanabe

When I first heard Kevin Puts’s gorgeous, melodic score for THE HOURS back in 2022, I was blown away, thinking it was almost too good to be true. Could it be a classic? I wanted to hear it again, though not too soon, to give it a chance to settle in its own skin. Lucky us—lucky me—that the Met brought it back so quickly. It reminded me that first impressions are sometimes on the mark.
