Review: JUST FOR US is a One-Man Phenomenon at Capital Stage
by Courtney Symes - Oct 7, 2026


If Capital Stage’s opening show is any indication, their 22nd season is going to be something special. Alex Edelman’s Just For Us is a one-man show written and originally performed by the comedian. It was awarded a Special Tony Award, an honor bestowed upon shows that don’t fit into the traditional competitive categories. Amy Resnick returns to Capital Stage to direct, being particularly adept at handling complicated topics with grace. The production stars Jack Greenberg, who brings Edelman’s wit and vulnerability to life in a performance deserving of the standing ovations given at opening night.

Review: AFFLUENZA, starring Noah Schnapp, Riverside Studios
by Cindy Marcolina - Oct 6, 2026


Stranger Things alum and alleged Zionist Noah Schnapp is top billed, though he is selling a show that has him on stage for under a third of its running time. It’s the type of project that slyly attempts to conceal its shortcomings under opulent optics. Unfortunately, not even a lavish set by Charlie Corcoran can hide the fact that this is a tasteless, aimless, pointless piece of theatre.
