Inside "Baipás" at George Street Playhouse

by Charles Paolino
published 2022-03-01

Baipás, the play that will reignite the George Street Playhouse season, is, in theatrical parlance, a “two-hander,” which means that it has two characters. But that’s only partly true. There are only two actors, but, without saying a word, the audience in this play by Jacobo Morales, plays a role—in fact, multiple roles—that are important to the story.




 

Our Favorite Stories In Theatre: Hiding Out In The Nether

New Jersey Stage published its 25,000th story in December 2021. As the site approached the milestone, we posed the question on social media as how we should celebrate.  One response was to highlight our favorite stories from over the years.  We liked this idea, but could not narrow things down to just 25 favorites so we will present a favorite each day from different genres.  Every Tuesday we feature one of our favorite stories in theatre. This week's choice is a feature on The Nether, a play by Jennifer Haley, which was presented by Centenary Stage Company.

PHOTOS from "Amadeus" at Algonquin Arts Theatre

(MANASQUAN, NJ) -- Peter Shaffer's Amadeus is entering its last weekend at Algonquin Arts Theatre with performances on Saturday at 8:00pm and Sunday at 3:00pm.  The play is a reimagining of the lives of Antonio Salieri and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The play, brought to life with the music of Mozart, is a tale of jealousy and betrayal... and perhaps even murder. The story opens in 1825 on the eve of the elderly Salieri's death. The show won the Tony award for Best Play and the Academy Award for Best Film. Algonquin's production will be directed by Gina Lupi.
