OPERA REVIEW: Le Nozze di Figaro — 231 Years Old, and Sassier Than Ever

A fine cast, expert conducting, and beautiful designs are hallmarks of Opera Philadelphia’s production.

One of the three plot strands in Stef Smith’s sincere play is for the ages.

There are many wonderful things in Annie Baker’s new play, but it loses its way.

John Guare’s still-wonderful play deserves better than Trip Cullman’s glossy, shallow revival.

This amped-up version has its own rewards—especially in the marvelous Euan Morton.

What should be shocking and hilarious emerges here as kind of naughty and sort of funny.

One of the supreme classics of musical theater seen here in a brilliantly theatrical staging.

I would gladly have stayed on to see this gorgeous show a second time.

Even when we’re not clear where Mia Chung’s play is going, the trip is more than worthwhile.

Blanka Zizka’s playwriting debut showcases her considerable skills… as a director.
