In a CBS Minstrel Man program preview, the origins of minstrel shows are traced from 1843 New York white acts with burnt cork to black performers and white audiences.

American Buffalo shines with raw Broadway vigor
New York review hails David Mamet’s American Buffalo as the season’s sharpest Broadway entry at the Ethel Barrymore. Through three flawed men and a cluttered junkshop setting, it exposes longing, miscommunication, and the brutal urge for connection amid a subculture on stage. Duvall leads a superb trio, while Santo Loquasto’s junkshop design mirrors social discard. The Cherry Orchard by Andrei Serban is critiqued as a misfire, transformed into slapstick and distant from Chekhov’s intent despite a strong cast led by Irene Worth and Raul Julia.
