There is a lot wrong with the central conceit of Marc Camoletti's farce BOEING BOEING, playing at the Garden Theatre through April 4th. Set in Paris in 1963, Bernard, an insatiable womanizer (likely with undiagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder) has figured out that the best way to reap the benefits of having three live-in fiancees without any of them knowing about each other is to only propose to flight attendants on conflicting schedules. From there, the jokes nearly write themselves as schedules change and weather delays departures. Directed by Keith Smith, the Garden Theatre's six-person cast bounces through the madcap comedy with an abundant joy, despite all of the outdated gender politics. BOEING BOEING, translated from the original French by Beverley Cross and Francis Evans, stands up well as a time-capsule from a different time with a different perspective, and if you can get past the show's uncomfortable premise, you are sure to enjoy its charming cast and taut direction.

galerie102 presents selections fromAllie Pohl's Ideal Woman series, which question society's obsession and commercial quest for perfection—taking on the ultimate purveyor of commercial femininity: Barbie. Barbie's torso becomes the touchstone of a greater reevaluation of societal constructs of perfection: unwanted hair, impossible body standards, and what it means to be an 'ideal' woman. At stake are deeply imbedded cultural values dictated to women on a daily basis—mostly through the media barrage—as to what one must attain and maintain to be an 'Ideal Woman.' Pohl's show has received critical acclaim from Claudia Pardo: 'Chutzpah is often underrated, and Pohl has it. [She] leverages a very serious matter: society's enduring perpetuation of the feminine from an unrealistic point of view, with work that is playful and accessible. Pohl's work is refreshingly bold in an “I don't care what you think” manner, but it also has a very sweet component, which makes it almost irresistible.'
