Interview: Director Debbie Devine of WINTER'S BENCH world premiere at 24th Street Theatre
by Shari Barrett - Aug 18, 2026

Set in a park where only one ancient tree remains, Winter’s Bench follows Gladys, an elderly woman who has spent a lifetime believing the tree spoke to her when she was a child, and who waits, even now, to hear its voice again. Blending storytelling, live music and imagination, it’s both a memory play and a meditation on nature, aging and hope. And at a time when forests are disappearing and loneliness is on the rise, audiences are invited to consider what we lose when we stop listening to nature, to one another, and to the stories that shape us. I decided to speak with Debbie Devine, 24th Street Theatre’s artistic director who directs the play, about her vision for the production and why she thinks its message about nature, aging and hope speaks to modern audiences.

Review: DALIBOR is Smashing Smetana at Bard’s SummerScape under Botstein
by Richard Sasanow - Aug 2, 2025

Though Bedrich Smetana’s DALIBOR—seen this week at Bard SummmerStage in a wonderful production by Jean-Romain Vesperini, with an ingenious set design by Bruno de Lavenere, a fine cast and the American Symphony Orchestra in impeccable form under Leon Botstein—was reputedly the composer’s favorite among his eight operas, it was a failure at its opening in Prague in 1868. There was never a fully staged production in this country until this current one. (I saw the July 30 matinee.)

Review: Bard's LE PROPHETE Makes You Long for 'Brevity' of Wagner's Ring Cycle
by Richard Sasanow - Aug 5, 2024

Saying that Giacomo Meyerbeer’s LE PROPHETE is long is like calling the Grand Canyon a pothole: It doesn’t begin to describe the experience, though they both sometimes have a rocky landscape.
