About this listen

 This week on Theater Talk, Anthony and Peter talk about Anthony's recent trip to a theater conference in NYC, where he saw REUNIONS, a new Off-Broadway musical featuring music by Jimmy Calire (formerly with "The Ravens," a Buffalo rock band). It's a chamber musical adaptation of two classic one-act plays: The Twelve-Pound Look by J.M. Barrie (creator of Peter Pan) and A Sunny Morning both with former lovers reuniting, now playing at New York City Center Stage II. Anthony also saw “ROMY AND MICHELE: The Musical now playing Off-Broadway at Stage 42 based on the 1997 movie "Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion," with two best friends who pose as successful businesswomen (inventors of Post-it notes!) to impress classmates at their 10-year reunion. Anthony will catch GIDION'S KNOT (Brazen Faced Varlets at Compass PAC) and THIRST (Irish Classical) and will discuss them next week!
