Theater

Actress and comedian Carol Burnett is still in her element at these live, intimate Q&A sessions.

Many of the play's well-known scenes and speeches hit home with depth and exactitude under Gregory Doran's scholarly and wide-angled direction in this spectacular if flawed production.

With a uniformly excellent cast, this bracing version of Gotthold Lessing's German Enlightenment play hits home with its then (and still) controversial view of religion: that no faith has the uniquely true message of God.

Citing Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker in The Dark Knight as an example of an actor's extreme dedication, Aluma wondered: "How far is too far? Is it still acting or has it become this psychosis they are living truthfully in an adopted mind – turning on something that is no longer them and is in fact dangerous?"

A solid production and bright performances help to cover the clichés.

'Troll' plunges headlong into the hyper-modern. Are our online selves our true selves at all? If not, what are they? What do their actions say about us? The questions are vividly relevant.

Three enthusiastic performances bring some needed energy to sitcom-level material.

Clad in golden or pure white robes and with curly hair flowing down his back, Tennant's King Richard II is an arresting figure, oozing nervous faery-king charisma.

The 'Greater Tuna' vet premieres his new comedy in the town that helped give him his start.

Magnificently acted, beautifully written, and claustrophobically staged in the round with a pile of dirt in the center, the cast running and slinking in circles behind the audience, 'Wolf in the River' is a jolt of dark energy.
