What did our critic think of PRAYER FOR THE FRENCH REPUBLIC at The Huntington Theatre? The Joshua Harmon play “Prayer for the French Republic” – now being given a superbly rendered production by the Huntington – raises questions that have faced the Jewish people for generations, chief among them, “where are Jews safe?” and “why do they hate us?”

COME CELEBRATE WITH MARILYN MAYE,  is ostensibly a celebration of her upcoming birthday. But it is so much more than that. It is a celebration of all the fans who have made Maye as loved and respected as she is. It is a two-way avenue of gratitude between an entertainer and those she entertains. It’s hard to say which is more delightful, the songs themselves, which are beautifully sung and acted, or the banter that feels as unscripted as a cocktail party. And Marilyn Maye is the most charming host of her own fête. Two weeks ago she performed with 80 musicians at a sold-out concert at Carnegie Hall. But is this Marilyn, with only herself and her trio, that I prefer. An intimate evening of great songs and good-spirited bonhomie.

There is one place on the modern East Side where that world of NY cognoscenti is as alive and vibrant as it ever was. Café Carlyle is the perfect setting for John Pizzarelli and Jessica Molaskey’s show EAST SIDE AFTER DARK. They serve up tune after tune from that 50s and 60s scene where life didn’t begin until after sunset and jazz was the currency of the smart set. Pizzarelli, son of jazz great Bucky Pizzarelli, is a world-class guitarist who has worked with a long list of luminaries including Rosemary Clooney, James Taylor, and Paul McCartney. He has recorded 20 solo albums and has appeared on at least twice that number for other artists. Jessica Molaskey, a Broadway baby if ever there was one, has appeared in a dozen or more hit shows including Sunday in the Park With George, Cats, Crazy For You, Chess, Oklahoma!, City of Angels, Parade, A Man of No Importance, and Songs For a New World to name only a few.

Starring Cate Blanchett in the title role, Todd Field’s TÁR received a six-minute standing ovation when it premiered at the Venice Film Festival on September 1, 2022. Deutsche Grammophon’s groundbreaking concept album, out now digitally and on CD, captures the process of music-making that lies at the heart of the film.

This album, more than any we have heard in a long time, sounds (and most importantly) feels like we’re sitting down in a club, hearing a live performer doing her cabaret set.
