Broadway Frankenstein flops after first night on stage
Broadway's Frankenstein, a costly comic strip spectacle at the Palace, opened and closed Jan 4 amid scorn for its gimmicks. Cast members Scott Schwartz Keith Jochim John Carradine and a well-trained terrier Fritz received praise while others were harshly criticized for kraft-paper sets and weak performances. Meryl Streep shines in Alice in Concert at Public Theater though the score overpowers Carroll's work. Beyond Therapy at Marymount pans as Durang skewers therapists with fractured humor, while A Chekhov Sketchbook at Harold Clurman Theater showcases Buloff in comic form and strong supporting turns, under Tony Giordano's direction.

Salute to art pioneers at Guggenheim
German Expressionism unleashed an avalanche of emotion shaping 20th century art, laying groundwork for later movements. It produced few top-tier paintings yet sparked a primal jolt in creative thinking and offered a subjective counterpoint to Cézanne, Cubism, and Constructivism.
