Steven Brown Launches New Thriller, ULTIMATE SACRIFICE

Jimmy hasn't had an easy life since his mom died when he was a young boy, but things start looking up with his best friend becomes his girlfriend. She gets pregnant while the two are in high school, and 17-year-old Jimmy agrees to do the right thing and support her. The new book 'Ultimate Sacrifice,' released by Dog Ear Publishing, follows his story. Dropping out of high school and getting his GED isn't easy, but that's a picnic compared to Army boot camp and serving in a combat zone in Iraq. Sheer courage and quick thinking lead to heroic actions but eventually he's taken prisoner. Jimmy makes it home and eventually finds a job at a bank, but when that doesn't work out, he turns to a war-time buddy, now a police officer, working on a murder case. Bills must be paid, and Jimmy frames himself so Stacy can receive the reward money. His rollercoaster ride isn't over as he endures time in prison and faces execution for the crime he has chosen to make his own. But danger lurks when someone finds out about Jimmy's false confession, and suddenly everything he has planned is put in jeopardy. In working to do what is right for his young family, will Johnny be forced to go through with the ultimate sacrifice? Part-time writer Steven Brown is married and lives in the Berks County area. He has two children and three foster children.

BWW Review: At New Moon Theatre's TITUS, Tamora Gets Hers 'Sonny Side Up'

Probably the best (of the few) productions of TITUS ANDRONICUS was the 1999 film directed by Julie Taymor. Anthony Hopkins, donning his apron from SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, was a witty choice as 'Titus,' and Jessica Lange, years before jumping with abandon into the excesses of AMERICAN HORROR STORY, was a stunning 'Tamora, Queen of the Goths.' The visuals, typically 'Taymor,' were imaginative and impressive. Yet, by the film's conclusion, one thing was obvious about Shakespeare's TITUS (wildly popular in its day, but largely dismissed by modern audiences): The Bard jettisoned poetry for gore and special effects. That is also the direction that John Maness and his eager group of actors has taken New Moon Theatre Company's latest production at Theatre Works.

BWW Reviews: Theatre Memphis Brings THE PHILADELPHIA STORY South

George Cukor's 1940 film version of Philip Barry's THE PHILADELPHIA STORY was Katharine Hepburn's return to glory after the actress had been labeled 'box office poison' after the failure of several films. 021The savvy Hepburn was able to bend MGM to her will when it wanted to film Barry's play, and the end result rewarded everyone involved: Hepburn, her old RKO co-star Cary Grant, and the up and coming James Stewart. Not only were Oscar nominations and wins in store, but at the center of it all was Hepburn in all her patrician, high cheek-boned elegance. She may have given greater performances as the tragic, dope-addicted 'Mary Tyrone' in the film version of Eugene O'Neill's LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT or as the caustic, sparring 'Eleanor of Aquitaine' in James Goldman's THE LION IN WINTER, but for those who want to see Hepburn at the height of her unusual beauty and comedic gifts, THE PHILADELPHIA STORY is a must. Having seen the film numerous times, I was wary of Theatre Memphis' staging of Barry's work. THE PHILADELPHIA STORY, once seen, leaves such an impression that it's rather like tackling a remake of THE WIZARD OF OZ or GONE WITH THE WIND or THE GODFATHER. Director Jason Spitzer has taken the dare, and he and his cast have mostly succeeded in the satiny, stylized production currently playing at Theatre Memphis.

Tracy will walk down the aisle ... but with whom?
BWW Reviews: GCT's ALL MY SONS (or Waiting for Larry)

The intimate venue at Germantown Community Theatre provides a perfect setting for a drama like Arthur Miller's ALL MY SONS, an early-but-still timely demonstration of Miller's gifts as a playwright - and, as with all of Miller's major works, a veritable feast for actors. Like the later, legendary DEATH OF A SALESMAN and the McCarthy Era-inspired THE CRUCIBLE, Miller adopts and, when necessary, bends the rules of Classical tragedy to admit the likes of 'Willy Loman' and 'Joe Keller' into a realm dominated by OEDIPUS and ANTIGONE. While ALL MY SONS certainly stands on its own merits as an important play, it is tempting to see the similarities between it and Miller's most famous work.
