Gloria – A Life
I wouldn’t describe "Gloria – A Life" as a conventional play, but then again, there’s absolutely nothing about the life of Gloria Steinem that’s conventional. Emily Mann’s Gloria – A Life is as thought-provoking, educational, inspirational and surprising as is Ms. Steinem herself. Although I occasionally questioned Ms. Mann’s style, her subject was so compelling, I was rapt, riveted.

Sea Wall/A Life
From the nanno-second that Alex (Tom Sturridge) begins to speak in Simon Stephens’ Sea Wall at the Public Theater, we know it is going to be a bad day at Black Rock. Or Mudville. Or wherever it is this story-teller is located as he talks to us. Ditto for Abe (Jake Gyllenhaal) in A Life by Nick Payne.

When Charles Busch performs he does not perform the way some do. He lives his life out loud. As a cabaret artist, Charles Busch opens the book that is himself and invites us to peek over his shoulder as he turns the pages. We are only to eager to accept.

Amazing performance by Patrice Johnson Chevannes. The first 10 minutes of this production make the entire play worthwhile.

My Very Own British Invasion
The arrival of so many people all at once from so many different directions seemed like an invasion itself, and certainly one that surprised me. Although I have been a New Jersey resident for many years and a frequent theater goer, I confess that I had never been to the Paper Mill Playhouse, so, inevitably this is a review of an impressive performance and an impressive theater all in the same space.
