By Rachel Weinberg| BroadwayWorld Verified I usually appreciate when plays show and don’t tell, but THE BOOK OF GRACE really needs more exposition. Directed by Steve H. Broadnax III. Steppenwolf’s production is a new version of Parks’s 2010 play, expanded from its original 100-minute run-time to two and a half hours. Even with the extra run time, playwright Suzan-Lori Parks relies far too heavily on subtext that isn’t revealed to the audience.
By Rachel Weinberg| BroadwayWorld Verified Near, far, wherever you are…you need to see TITANIQUE if you love musicals and parody. Porchlight Music Theatre’s production, presented in partnership with Broadway In Chicago, easily passes the Marie Kondo test: This show sparks immense joy. I haven’t had this much fun or laughed this hard at the theater in awhile. With book by Marla Mindelle, Constantine Rousoli and Tye Blue, TITANIQUE tells the story of James Cameron’s TITANIC movie. But this time none other than Celine Dion narrates the events.
