The Sweet Spot

The Sweet Spot, now at the postage stamp-sized Theatre C at 59E59, is an earnest play in which Alice Jankel takes us into that moment when life changes for a well-married couple.

David Dean Bottrell: The Death of Me Yet at Pangea

Tonight was David Dean Bottrell: The Death of Me Yet at Pangea in New York City’s East Village. The high-energy storyteller slapped himself, immediately capturing the audience’s attention and earning laughs. Bottrell began his one-man show consisting of a series of stories about his life that, while appearing to be individual, were, in the end, connected and universal.

Godzilla’s Prince at Pangea

Doc Dougherty’s show at Pangea, Godzilla’s Prince, is an epic story of not only survival from an abusive childhood in Irish New York but of perseverance and kindness, of love that transcends the Homeric horrors one child had to endure. He had a boyhood of violence inflicted by both family and school. Sadomasochists can be found everywhere even in the supposed sacred confines of religion.

Aging is Not a Fairy Tale

Aging is Not a Fairy Tale at the Theater for the New City is a delightful, charming, humorous admixture of favorite fairy tales and characters. The repartee was well crafted and sophisticated, and the cast masterfully executed the many subtle and less subtle jabs with splendid, natural timing and assurance.

Telling Tales out of School

Telling Tales out of School is a quick-witted, sharp, intelligent look at the world of the Harlem Renaissance and its artists. These women are each strong and fearless, witty and dry, considerate and caring.
