“A century separates Acts I and II of “Sunday in the Park With George,” the Sondheim musical about artistic obsession. In the Roundabout revival, those 100 years pass before your eyes seamlessly in a fantastic time-lapse sequence you might expect to see in a film, but not on stage. That’s the thing about director Sam Buntrock’s staging: It’s filled with surprising eye candy.”
“Pass the bile and vitriol, please.” No one actually says that in “August: Osage County,” but the second-act dinner scene boils over with savagery as the matriarch of the disturbed Weston clan, a woman with cancer of the mouth (fittingly), pushes her daughters to get verbally and physically violent. I’m looking forward to going back for seconds.
“Theresa Rebeck’s “Mauritius,” a play about sisters warring over some rare stamps, got mixed notices, but I found it very satisfying. And I still think back and marvel at the moment when Jackie screams at her older sibling about sprouting “bug wings, the kind that move really fast,” showing how disturbed she is.
I am more interested to see which celebrities sashay on the red carpet! I don’t have personal favourite for this year’s Tony Award Nominees.
