THEATER REVIEW | 'CABARET': Still Licentious, but Freshly Vulnerable Too By BEN BRANTLEY
Sally Bowles may be as louche and licentious as ever, but with Molly Ringwold in the role she is also bringing out the parental instincts in her audiences.

I haven't seen Molly Ringwald as Sally yet, but Raul Esparza is excellent as the Emcee, and very much a reason to revisit Studio 54 if you've been away for a while.

THEATER REVIEW | 'MOSTLY SONDHEIM': Barbara Cook Takes Sondheim in Fond Stride By BRUCE WEBER
Barbara Cook is 74, but if you closed your eyes and just listened, you'd never know it.

SHE SINGS & THE EARTH STANDS STILL By CLIVE BARNES
SHE sails onto the Vivian Beaumont stage like a radiantly welcoming hostess - happy and only slightly surprised to find her guests assembled and waiting. Waiting, moreover, with bated breath.

'Fantasticks' Will Trip the Lights No More by JAMES BARRON
After 17,162 performances, "The Fantasticks" closed on Sunday night. Now theatergoers can only try to remember. And to stop spelling words that end in "istic" with a K.

Last night's performance of The Fantasticks was held dearly by all in attendance. There was a lot of coverage on it, but what was not said was that this show is so important to so many careers in many ways. There are many Matts and Luisas who got their Equity card on Sullivan Street. There are many actors who at times were in between jobs and popped back into the show for a few weeks to get some pocket money and their health benefit weeks. That's the kind of producer Lore Noto is. The Fantasticks was a business... but it was a family business. And the world is a little sadder today, but grateful that we had 42 years to cherish it.
