Published in Attitude: The Dancer’s Magazine, Fall 2008 When Broadway scavenges itself, theater lovers pounce. More than a new work or its cousin, the Movie-made-into-a-musical-or-play, revivals are as close to a sure thing as one gets. Hardly anyone revives a flop; since returning shows were usually hits the first time out, the producer’s job is an easier road as…

Got shaken & stirred under the theater’s dark lights this weekend. Privileged to see the Steve Reich Evening at BAM, in collaboration with the choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker. Reich isn’t for everyone: subtle tonal graduations emerge from his rich rhythms almost imperceptively, requiring a meditative frame of patience to reap listening rewards. For me…

Edie Adams, 1927-2008. Growing up Edie was everywhere: on television variety shows and especially commercials. In my head I still hear her voice, a jazzy belt that could make Muriel Panatella Cigars sound like the coolest thing on earth. Thanks to her, I’m sure that company made a lot of dough. RIP.

At last night’s performance of Gypsy, the announcer informed us that Patti LuPone had hurt her foot, and would be performing in Isotoners—I thought it was a joke but sure enough, when her Madame Rose storms the stage, the sexy pumps familiar from publicity photos were nowhere in sight. What looked like house slippers proved…

She would have turned 85 on July 25. Forever famous as Sophia on television’s The Golden Girls, but it was in Broadway’s Torch Song Trilogy (1982) that I first laid eyes on Estelle Getty. Thereafter, she was doomed to serve up variations on the cantankerous little old lady, but what’s to complain? After all, it…

From my mezzanine seat, I felt unmistakable waves of love roll through the audience at a weekend performance of [title of show] at Broadway’s Lyceum Theater. The crowd confirmed what the critics decreed: this is a stunning, original piece of work, a tonic for those who bemoan the Great White Way’s recent worst tendencies–overpriced, over-hyped,…
