So good, we 'Can't Stop' clapping
Dance Review

'Orpheus' plunges audience into state of pure bliss
Theater Review
Even before "Orpheus Descending" begins, you are won over. Director Benjamin Mosse paints his production on a fantastical canvas -- a cabinet of curiosities filled with gleaming silver pails, white vases, birdcages and baskets, and sad, slumped stuffed...
No black demerits for 'Dahlia'
Theater Review
The Yale Repertory Theatre's latest whoddunit is plagued by a most unfortunate problem: it can barely answer who didn't. "The Black Dahlia," is long, complicated play based on a novel, by James Ellroy of "L.A. Confidential" fame. The play is based on...

No more than a 10 minute bike ride away from central campus, ALL Arts + Literature Laboratory is just what its name implies: an open environment for artistic and literary experimentation. An elegant exhibition space and hub for artistic workshops, it...
Forceful one-woman show hits Nick's
For me, it was the wooden spoon. For my roommate, it was the belt. For the younger generations of the family depicted in "Yit, Ngay (One, Two)," it was the broom handle or a vacuum cleaner attachment. Although I never felt the sting of the wooden...
'Restaurant' is bitter, sweet social satire
Charmingly reactionary, "Fancy Chinese Restaurant" seeks to subvert the myriad cliches of Chinese-Americana. When it lays it on thick enough, Fei Liu's '03 play shines with humor and biting wit. The only problem is that it doesn't always pull the...
