Review Roundup: THE CREATION, Part Of Mostly Mozart At Lincoln Center

The radically inventive Catalonian theater collective Fura dels Baus transforms Haydn's Enlightenment-era oratorio into an immersive theatrical experience in THE CREATION at Lincoln Center. Including visual pyrotechnics, three dozen large helium balloons, a 20-foot-tall crane, and a 250-gallon water tank, the work touches upon subjects from philosophy to genetics. Laurence Equilbey conducts Insula Orchestra, a period-instrument ensemble, along with three daring soloists and the accentus choir, who enact this musically and visually stunning portrayal of the emergence of life coupled with the continued presence of original sin. The concert is sung in German with English supertitles

It is the power of all true art and science...' -Albert Einstein If you've ever seen someone in 'flow,' you've been in the presence of this emotion. The ethereal transference of otherworldly energy and focus pulsing through the very essence of being without obstruction. That is flow. That is the elusive emotion of 'the mysterious.' That is watching Brian Nash at the piano.

BWW Reviews: Broadway by the Bay's HAIRSPRAY Offers Strong Cast and Uplifting Message

Refreshingly different from its film counterpart, the original Hairspray musical offers all the highs of the movie set to the thrill of live performance. The changes from stage to screen can both enhance and take away from the charm of a musical. In the case of Broadway by the Bay's production of Hairspray, audiences are treated to those special elements lost in the film. Of course, if you've never seen the movie version of the Tony Award winning show, allow me to introduce you to the high-spirited, catchy musical that will leave a smile on your face, a tune on your mind and a tap to your foot.
