Review: CENTENNIAL CASTING at Penguin Rep Theatre
Mike Labbadia creates a larger-than-life Vincent whose slow burns, emotional outbursts, and comically hapless attempts at romance reminded me of Jackie Gleason as Ralph Kramden in seminal sitcom The Honeymooners. I mentioned the Gleason comparison to Mr. Labbadia after his performance. What I didn’t realize at that moment is that in the script, which I read later, the character breakdown for Vincent invokes “Ralph Kramden” and an authors’ note in the script references “The Honeymooners.”

CLEOPATRA - A LIFE UNPARALLELED Plays The Robert Moss Theater 6/13-6/27
She was the most beautiful woman in the ancient world, and the most reviled. A pragmatic ruler who believed in keeping both friends and enemies within arm's length, yet she was hated by her subjects who felt she gave away too much and scarified her country's national identity.
