Review: AMADEUS at The Gamm Theatre
In 1998, my senior year English teacher decided to mix things up by having us start the semester by watching movies rather than reading the usual high school classics. The selections were varied – The Godfather, Ghandi, Some Like it Hot, From Here to Eternity.

Review: Met Opera Continues Support of Ukraine with CONCERT OF REMEMBRANCE
Friday night, the Metropolitan Opera gave its second concert honoring “Ukraine and its brave citizens as they fight to defend their country and cultural heritage.” The country’s colors flew above the performance, which opened with a pretaped video message from First Lady, Olena Zelenska, along with the Ukraine national anthem. She remarked that the concert wasn’t really marking the one-year anniversary of the horrendous, illegal conflict (although, indeed, it did), but a time closer to peace for its citizenry.

BWW Review: LETTICE AND LOVAGE, Menier Chocolate Factory
Lettice Douffet (Felicity Kendal), a tour guide at Fustian House, has inherited her mother's penchant for theatricality. This inclination leads her to filling the gaps in the boring history of the stately home with embellishments and imaginative stories. Her dismissal by her supervisor Lotte Schoen (Maureen Lipman) oddly marks the start of a timid friendship that will develop into a fascinating adventure for the two lonely women.
