Starring the Emmy Award nominee and beloved 'Saturday Night Live' veteran, NBC has scheduled 'The Maya Rudolph Show' for Monday, May 19 (10 p.m. ET/PT).

Portland's Good Theater closed its season with a highly original and poetic premiere of Stephen Underwood's multi-media performance piece, Underwater Guy.

Part documentary, part dramatic monologue with movement, the rapid shifts in the modes of communication prove stimulating, sometimes surprising, but always engaging. For in Underwood's play, water is more than a habitat or a passion; it is a metaphor for his life's journey, and as such, the piece takes on a deeper significance and resonance.
