Selective listings from theater critics of The New York Times.
Richard Levine to write, direct marital drama
An unfair labor practice complaint was filed after Tyler Perry's production studio had fired writers for "House of Payne" who were seeking union representation.
As part of a season celebrating the work of Tony award-winner Susan Stroman, North Shore Music Theatre is reviving Harold Prince's 1994 version of this gem.
Saviana Stanescu's "Aliens With Extraordinary Skills" is an enchanting piece of theater, a paean to New York that just happens to include balloon animals.
Ruhl's brand of deadpan magical whimsy is tailor-made for adults prone to see the modern world reflected in Wonderland, Toad Hall or Pooh Corner, though it may induce discomfort and even tedium in those who lik…
The tuner looks like a certain draw on the road considering the enduring popularity of the 2001 source movie, not to mention today's legions of high school girls who'll look on it as "Harvard Law School Musical…
Darko Tresnjak, the Old Globe's resident artistic director, has helmed an elegant, emotionally precise revival of a minor gem among American comedies of manners. And the clothes are as dazzling as the banter.
Just as Broadway is being criticized for a lack of original productions this fall, Hollywood is taking some of its best ideas from the stage.
Inexplicably, some highly-acclaimed Broadway musicals take years to receive their first L.A.-produced renditions.
James Lapine's "Mrs. Miller Does Her Thing" tells the story of Mrs. Miller's meteoric rise - and quick crash - as a beloved national oddity.
Already a veteran of three previous Broadway shows at age 15, Brynn Williams has a heart-shaped face, big brown eyes and an even bigger voice that soars above the all-teenager troupe of her latest project, the …
Broadway's "The Seagull" is both too big and (so to speak) too noisy. Chicago's "R.U.R." is at once horrifying, entertaining and genuinely thought-provoking.
The Royal Court's import will appeal most to those who prefer their Chekhov on the dark side.
"How neurotic everyone is," cries Dr. Dorn in the latest revival of Chekhov's masterpiece--the third to hit New York in a year. Unfortunately, his description is too accurate.
I'm not sure how many swallows it takes to make a summer, but I'm certain that one "Seagull" really well done would have been quite sufficient to establish Chekhov's genius and satisfy our hunger for nourishing…
The word for the new production of "The Seagull" on Broadway is lucid.
That's a trickier accomplishment than you might think.
"The Seagull" arrived from London festooned with top-shelf adjectives: "rapturous," "exhilarating," "finest."
And the revival of Chekhov's play, which opened Thursday night at the Walter Kerr Theatre, is deserving of all of them - most of the time.
Rarely is the writer's signature balance of humor, pathos and tragedy so exquisitely rendered or the modulation between them orchestrated so affectingly. Despite one casting choice that doesn't quite measure up…
Portions of this production stand as among the most inventive reconsiderations of the work to hit New York stages in quite a while.
Kristin Scott Thomas gives a brilliantly multifaceted portrayal of the actress Arkadina in Ian Rickson's worthy revival of Chekhov's classic play.
How thrilling, finally, to have a version of "The Seagull" that understands why we cherish Anton Chekhov.
Ian Rickson's magnificent production of "The Seagull" is the finest and most fully involving production of Chekhov that I have ever known.
Film star Kristin Scott Thomas' burgeoning theatrical career brings her at last to Broadway in The Seagull.
Peter Sarsgaard talks about playing Trigorin in the Broadway revival of "The Seagull."
Whatever the merits of Griffiths and Radcliffe and company, the horses are the natural stars of the show.
Aliens with Extraordinary Skills seems to be saying that immigrants can have a tough time adapting. That thesis is too simplistic to be riveting. What is riveting is the performance of Jessica Pimentel.
