Trodding the Boards April 5, 2025

April 5, 2025 By Brian Sands

Every Brilliant Thing at Big Couch through April 6 Entering the theater at Big Couch recently, I encountered a Who’s Who of some of New Orleans’ finest theater artists, perhaps, in part, because it was a Monday night and most other venues were dark. I was pleased to see (in alphabetical order) Leslie Castay, Becca Chapman, Keith & Leslie Claverie, Benjamin Dougherty, … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards April 5, 2025

Joe & Marilyn at Westwego Performing Arts Theatre Most people have some familiarity with Marilyn Monroe, the mid-twentieth century movie star and sex symbol whose fame continues to burn brightly as movies, books, songs, etc. about her still tumble forth regularly. Even non-hard core fans may be aware of her early hardscrabble life, celebrity marriages, brief fame in … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards March 28, 2025

Bartender Spotlight

March 14, 2025 By Tony Leggio

Sometimes you meet a bartender who just immediately endears himself to you. My bartender spotlight this month is one of those people.  I am talking about the wonderful Nick Renuoff at the Phoenix Bar, located at 941 Elysian Fields Avenue. Maybe it is his twisted sense of humor, his sharp wit, his ability to make a strong drink or his devilish smile.  I am not sure what … [Read more...] about Bartender Spotlight

Curtain Up Now that Mardi Gras is just a happy memory, it’s time for theater to move back indoors again. Through the beginning of Jazzfest, lots of shows will be debuting on local stages from Metairie to the Northshore to the West Bank. Hope you’ll be able to check out some--or all--of the following. Coming to bat at the Westwego Performing Arts Theatre is the Jefferson … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards March 7, 2025

Brechtfest VI at the AllWays Lounge Sure New Orleans has potholes and too many corrupt politicians and a crumbling education system. But it also has phenomenal restaurants, vibrant art galleries & museums, and Mardi Gras. Add to that latter list, Brechtfest whose sixth iteration recently appeared in the Twilight Room of the AllWays Lounge. Regrettably, productions of … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards February 24, 2025

Timbuktu, USA at The New Marigny Theatre My last column included a brief write-up of Intramural Theater’s recent production of Timbuktu, USA, but it merits a few more words as such inspired madness doesn’t grace our stages too often. Ken Prestininzi’s absurdist comedy tells the wild story of Kelly Kilkenny, an oversexed Secretary of State, who having once been passed over … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards February 14, 2025
