Site-specific + post-apocalyptic NYC + fancy Brooklyn apartment + cocktails definitely ticks a lot of my boxes. (Considerable audience participation not so much, but I can be bribed with a drink into many things, even that.) exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I have a complicated relationship with autofiction, but auto(meta) performance is something a little more interesting. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Intensely uncomfortable but in a good (well, effective) way. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Eisa Davis's new piece is part performance, part ritual, part art installation, always interesting. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

There’s a great ensemble portrait in THE MATRIARCHS, but structurally it didn’t quite work for me. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A pirate musical that's less fun than it wants to be. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Going over the Manhattan Bridge, the conductor sang the entire Magilla Gorilla theme song. I think there were only about three people not wearing headphones and we all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly while checking in with one another to confirm this was really happening.

ROAD KILLS isn't quite a comedy, but it finds some levity and wry humor in some pretty dark places. (Read the content warning on their website if you're squeamish or have a hard time with depictions of abuse, though.) exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

This is not an upbeat play, but it's a showcase for some great acting, with special kudos to Michael Churnes. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I was terrified of Ann Harris when I started at Random House: a tiny woman in impeccable suits, wielding a fierce stare. Until I worked with her and realized how brilliant and kind she was. Her passing—at almost 100!—is truly the end of an era. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/03/o...

Whatever you do, don't call it stand-up. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I saw the closing performance so you'll have to take my word for it, but WINNING IS WINNING packed a punch. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A lovely little play about magical thinking and the magic of theater. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

War is hell, even when you're fighting Fascism. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

It's funny because it's true. Also depressing because it's true. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Very funny, papering over existential dread. The farting drill joke, though, is a keeper. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I am a very clumsy person and the fact that 2/3 of this play's cast spent most of the show on skateboards, tipping over the edge of the empty swimming pool that is the set, terrified me. Amazing casting, though. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

O.K.! is, well, just okay. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Always happy when @clubbedthumb.bsky.social Summerworks season rolls around. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A(U)NTS is wacky fun, and the title is truly inspired. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

FIVE MODELS IN RUINS, 1981 looks great but doesn't quite satisfy. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Alarmingly timely. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I really liked RACECAR RACECAR RACECAR, Kallan Dana's last play, but I think I liked this one even better. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

It took me two tries to see RHEOLOGY due to some technical issues but I'm very glad I went back (also found a great Vietnamese restaurant up the street which I will surely revisit next time I go to the Bushwick Starr. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I did not love MACBETH IN STRIDE, but I would be intrigued to see an actual production of MACBETH that incorporated its best features. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I will never turn down the chance to see Caryl Churchill or Deirdre O'Connell, so this was a good night for me. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I wanted more from JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN, maybe because I liked THE GOOD JOHN PROCTOR so much. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

David Greenspan is truly a national treasure. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Sometimes you just want to laugh with/at lesbians from space. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

My co-reviewer and I had some differences of opinions about THE TROJANS, but then again I haven't actually read THE ILIAD, so what do I know? exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A rollicking comedy about some serious history. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I prefer the weirder and more theatrical BJJ but can’t argue that he can do the Great American Play as well as he can do everything else. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Some very strong performances but I did not love the play. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

All I could think about while watching this was whether the Peace Corps will still exist six months from now. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

This play is much trickier than it looks, and also is aimed squarely at the heart of all of us women who grew up in the seventies with complicated relationships with our moms. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A one-woman show was an odd fit for an artist who generally doesn't do so well by his women characters. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I liked the witchiness more than the love story. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

It was hard to watch this play while feeling that our country won’t survive long enough for Americans to suffer from the Singularity. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Actors acting as actors learning about acting. The permutations are dizzying. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Forgot to post this earlier. A KNOCK ON THE ROOF is harrowing in its ordinariness. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I am always happy when there are puppets. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I am far from an expert on opera, but I really enjoyed this. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

My week in theater featured two dysfunctional family holiday gatherings, but RACECAR RACECAR RACECAR did something much more interesting with that. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A very grim musical. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

A little bit terrifying. Maybe a lot terrifying. But also funny and smart and comforting. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I wanted to like this more than I did--Marisa Tomei! The riot girl music of my youth! Gen X once again stuck in the middle... And still. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

And on another note entirely: exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi... @exeuntnyc.bsky.social

I have such respect for the way JACK combines its producing and its activism, and their current festival is no exception. exeuntnyc.com/features/fea... @exeuntnyc.bsky.social
