As you may recall from last week, I've begun posting links to reviews of recently opened Broadway shows. This week I've added the current crop and updated last week's bunch. If you'd like to do your own searching, check out "Finding the Reviews" for some helpful starting points.
To reiterate: many of the large newspapers do not make their review archives available online, and some of them reference the reviews pages so that they cannot be bookmarked, so it's possible that a number of these links will not be valid for very long -- which explains why the more recent openings have more links (which will tend to go bad in a day or so). Also be aware that many of the papers listed require that you register with the site before you can get to the link. But registration is free.

I plan on making this a somewhat regular event. If there's a major production opening somewhere that you'd like to see some reviews for, write me.
You don't listen to the critics anyway. You find out for yourself -- go see a show!
My critical advice? If you're going to be around NYC, go see Two Pianos, Four Hands. This brilliant tour de force, splendidly performed by its creators, filled with glorious music and pathos, just arrived in New York after a successful Canadian run. Directed by Gloria Muzio. Don't miss it!
See you at the theatre.
