Trodding the Boards November 3, 2020

November 7, 2020 By Brian Sands

Theatre For One: For This Moment at Loyola University Hallelujah! Live theater has returned to Orleans Parish! Granted, it was only for two weekends. And audiences were limited. And the run is over now. But it happened and successfully so. What “it” was, was Theatre For One: For This Moment put on by Loyola University’s Department of Theatre Arts & … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards November 3, 2020

The Pillowman at Swamplight Theater through November 1 As I headed to Ponchatoula to see a production of The Pillowman, I didn't know what to expect as it would be the first time I'd be attending the theater there. When I got to the Swamplight Theater and discovered that this challenging play was not actually part of its schedule but a presentation by a new, young … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards October 20, 2020

Single Black Female online through October 10 In what I believe is the first extended engagement in Orleans Parish, UNO’s Theatre Program presents its opening production of the fall semester, Single Black Female, through October 10. Granted, it’s not live nor being live-streamed, (it’s actually pre-recorded) but given that tickets are being sold individually for dates … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards October 6, 2020

Nicole Barwick and Erin Kate Young in The Odd Couple (photo by Carla Barwick)

The Odd Couple at Playmakers Theater through Oct. 4 It was so good to be heading to the North Shore recently to see a show at Playmakers Theater. First because I was looking forward to visiting this historic 65-year-old playhouse in Covington for the first time since it reopened in July (I missed its A Chorus Line then). And also because, just as the drive began, I got … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards September 22, 2020

The cast of 12 Angry Men

12 Angry Men at 30 by Ninety Theatre through September 13 Reginald Rose’s 12 Angry Men may be over 65 years old, but in our current age of overwrought passions, distortion of facts, and demonization of the “other”, this courtroom drama remains as timely as ever. Mandeville’s 30 by Ninety Theatre (880 Lafayette St.) is wise to present it now. Originally done on TV in 1954 … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards September 8, 2020

Pete'n'Keely at Café Luke Dinner Theatre through August 29 This weekend will be your last opportunity to savor Ginger Luke’s delectable cuisine at Café Luke Dinner Theatre (153 Robert St., Slidell) as she and husband Rickie Luke have made the decision, for a variety of reasons, to close after many years of producing food and theater in a number of North Shore locations. I … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards August 25, 2020

The Seth Concert Series through August 24 For over 10 weeks now, Broadway’s merriest mensch, Seth Rudetsky, has been bringing theatrical stars into our bedrooms and living rooms live on Sunday nights (and repeated the following Monday afternoon) with his cabaret/concert/interview series. What’s been interesting to watch is that while Seth and his guests are all … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards August 11, 2020

Laurie Bonura and Nino Bonura in The Hallelujah Girls

The Hallelujah Girls at 30 by Ninety Theatre through August 2 It may not be Shakespeare, but after four months without any live theater, The Hallelujah Girls, playing at Mandeville’s 30 by Ninety Theatre (https://30byninety.com) through August 2, seems like the greatest show ever done. Well, not quite. But almost. Since the COVID-19 pandemic shut down live theater in … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards July 28, 2020

Juan Diego Flórez and Joyce DiDonato in La Donna del Lago

Jessie Mueller/The Seth Concert Series through July 13 It’s not the same, but what is these days? And in some ways, it’s even better than what it’s replacing. “It” is The Seth Concert Series, a spinoff from the Broadway@NOCCA series that has become a beloved part of NOLA’s theater scene. With live performances temporarily on hold, producer Mark Cortale and host/music … [Read more...] about Trodding the Boards June 30, 2020
