Festival Finale, New York City Theater January 2016
After two weeks of heavy theater going we reflect on the brilliance and the busts of this year’s January theater festival season. We revisit all nine of the shows we highlighted two weeks ago in our preview episode (2:20) and four additional shows we saw together (Yesterday Tomorrow, 25:10, Now I’m Fine, 32:20, Confirmation, 38:30, and Escuela, 44:15). Discussion of these shows led to a conversation about revolution and social change and inevitably we end up at Hamilton.
Things we’re looking forward to seeing soon (1:06:10): Astronomy Club Presents: A Journey Through Black History, Utility, In Quietness, Safeword, and Toshi Reagon’s 32nd Annual Birthday Concerts at Joe’s Pub.
