Otto & Astrid: The Stages Tour at Under St. Marks

Otto & Astrid: The Stages Tour is a thunderously funny, musically brilliant, and strangely moving 70-minute masterwork that explodes like a glitter bomb in a wine-barrel basement. Berlin’s most charismatic dysfunctional siblings ignite the sold-out UNDER St. Marks audience into helpless laughter, communal sing-alongs, and genuine warmth. Clare Bartholomew and Daniel Tobias are performers of extraordinary caliber. Do not miss them. Wherever they play next, follow them there.

The Whisperer in Darkness Review: NYC’s Best Horror Theater Experience

A sonic descent into madness that’s as entertaining as it is eerie, The Whisperer in Darkness delivers cosmic horror with theatrical sophistication and campy charm. This is essential viewing lovers of genuine scares and genuinely great theater—a production that proves the best horror entertainment comes not from what you see, but from what you imagine in the darkness between the words.

EXES The Musical Offers Cathartic Musical Reckoning

In the intimate confines of The Chain Theatre, EXES The Musical concluded its brief but incendiary New York City run with a performance that left audiences both stunned and exhilarated. This one-woman punk rock opera, created and performed by Anne DiGiovanni (performing as deegie), transforms profoundly personal journal entries into a searing examination of modern romance. With unflinching candor and disarming humor, DiGiovanni guides us through a decade of romantic misadventures that ultimately become a powerful meditation on female identity.
