 This week on Theater Talk, Anthony and Peter caught up on shows the other had seen. HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH (see listings) directed by Michael Gilbert-Wachowiak and starring Kris Bartolomeo and drag queen Vanna Deux and O'Connell & Company's charming INTO THE WOODS Opening night of THE EARLY GIRL featured seven equally fine actors, including Kai Crumley in a leading role and Juli Grygier back on the ART stage as solid as she was as in THE INFORMER. Eight (8!) shows close by Sunday this weekend (see listings) and they're all very good. The Artie Awards are scheduled for Monday, June 9th at Asbury Hall on Delaware Avenue at 8 p.m. Amy Jakiel and Curtis Lovell return as hosts, along with Anthony Chase.
