Summary
As the local theater scene continues to take a bit of a breather before a spate of summer productions begins, here's one ongoing show on this side of the border we recommend:
"Subversive Shorts" through July 11 at the Manny Fried Playhouse in a production by the Subversive Theatre Collective. From the review: "On 'Subversive Shorts' opening night, Schneiderman said that the event has become so popular, and is in such dire demand, that playwrights nationwide are submitting works. Lara Haberberger curated this presentation. The company has divided the 10 selected works into two evenings. I saw one, the 'Artaud' program. The plays, while not necessarily all "political," are thought provoking... This is a fun and endearing evening. On opening night, Schneiderman offered a deal if you wanted to come back and see the other program. Thursday performances are 'pay what you can,' and, one day during the run, you can see the lineups back to back. I'd say it would be worth it. Just bring a sandwich for intermission." --Jana EisenbergSee the full content of this document
