Loot Shocks Broadway with Dark British Comedy
The production of Joe Orton's Loot at the Biltmore Theatre delivers sharp satire through thriller tropes as Inspector Truscott probes a bank robbery linked to a nurse and the deceased. The play uses brisk, irreverent dialogue and bold staging to upend traditional decorum while preserving classic mystery beats. George Rose as Truscott stands out in a fast paced, dry performance. The play is directed by Derek Goldby and runs at 261 West 47th Street with ticketing via phone number 562 8340.

The review covers Joseph Papp's Ergo at the Florence Sutro Anspacher Theater part of the New York Shakespeare Festival Public Theater complex. It notes the intimate, roundish space above a subway that shakes with passing trains, the set by Ming Cho Lee, and mixed scenes with a satirical plot about A Ye der and Wurz. Performers Tom Aldredge Sam Waterston Miriam Lehmann Haupt are praised with cautions on Wacholder.

Your Own Thing at the Orpheum Faces Rocky Mix of Shakespeare
The rock musical Your Own Thing blends Twelfth Night with pop songs and multimedia images. Performers are lively, especially Rusty Thacker, Danny Apolinar, and Leland Palmer, but the show is uneven and overlong with limited intermission and some off key singing.
