THEATER REVIEW: In The Skin of Our Teeth, the End of the World… Over and Over

Arin Arbus’s gripping, entertaining production misses some of Thornton Wilder’s humanity.

An improbably delightful adaptation of the grimmest of all English-language dramas.

Lots of talk, and ultimately not much heat.

These idiosyncratic, often illuminating productions now at McCarter register in surprising ways.

In an often-dazzling parade of comic shtick, the sentimental side of Neil Simon tends to disappear.

What the diva does in this mixed-bag revival is star-lit and memorable. But is it acting?

In a kitchen in Rhinebeck, ordinary and extraordinary life transpires in Richard Nelson’s magnificent trilogy.

This high-budget, high-energy production is entertaining but rarely more. Why not?

In Josie Rourke’s entertaining revival, archness is the peril that lies ahead.

Pablo Heras-Casado led a propulsive performance that made a strong case for Beethoven’s problematic opera.
