Jenny Schwartz's God's Ear makes arresting use of language. It's definitely inventive, if at times irritating.

In its move to Broadway ( from BAM), Macbeth has lost none of its power and grandeur. If possible, Patrick Stewart and Kate Fleetwood, have gotten even better.

There's not much to feed on in A Catered Affair. Some delicious performances here, an atmospheric set there...but other major ingredients are missing.

This revival of Gypsy, starring Patti LuPone, is a real revelation. This is a Mama Rose, who shows her vulnerability, along with her more outrageous side-overbearing, but not bombastic.

This big-time revival of South Pacific has it all- great songs, glorious voices and a superb cast singing their hearts out.
