Theater Talk Welcomes Ben Brantley, Terry Teachout and Peter Marks This Weekend

 Critics Ben Brantley of The New York Times, Peter Marks of The Washington Post, and Terry Teachout of The Wall Street Journal review the current spring season on Broadway in the newest THEATER TALK this weekend.

Critics: Brantley, Marks and Teachout Review the New Season premieres Friday, May 11 (2012) at 1 a.m. on Thirteen, followed by airings on CUNY TV* Saturday 5/12 (8:30 PM), Sunday 5/13 (12:30 PM) and Monday 5/14 (7:30 AM, 1:30 PM, and 7:30 PM).  THEATER TALK is co-hosted by Michael Riedel of the New York Post and producer Susan Haskins. 

The Broadway shows, praised and panned, include "One Man, Two Guvnors," "Death Of A Salesman," "Gore Vidal's The Best Man," "Newsies," "Once," “Evita,” and “Jesus Christ Superstar”. The critics also look beyond Broadway and cite some of their favorite shows “off the radar.”
