Lea Michele starred in the Funny Girl revival on Broadway, but she isn’t leading the national tour production that is traveling around the country right now.

The 37-year-old actress, who is pregnant with her second child , cradled her baby bump while walking the red carpet at the 2024 Hope Rising Benefit on Thursday night (April 4) at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in New York City.

Lea was joined by Anna Wintour at the event.

One night earlier, the Funny Girl tour had its opening night performance in Los Angeles at the Ahmanson Theatre.

Newcomer Katerina McCrimmon is leading the production and she got rave reviews and standing ovations for her work as Fanny Brice. “The best thing about Katerina McCrimmon’s dazzling performance is that she makes the character her own,” a review in the Los Angeles Times said, adding that she “brings the house down in Fanny’s poleaxing first-act numbers.”

Funny Girl is playing at Center Theatre Group’s Ahmanson Theatre through April 28. Get tickets now!

FYI: Lea is wearing Michael Kors with a Brilliant Earth Cuff Bracelet.

With ‘Succession’ Complete, the Roys’ Next Takeover Is the Stage

Audiences are flocking to shows with Jeremy Strong, Sarah Snook and other alums of the acclaimed HBO series.

• Share full article

By Michael Paulson

There seems to be a secret ingredient to stage success this season: a stint on “Succession.”

So many “Succession” alums are onstage in New York and London that the show’s creator, Jesse Armstrong, has been dashing from theater to theater, trying to catch the work of his colleagues. On a recent trip to New York, he saw four shows featuring “Succession” alums, including a revival of Henrik Ibsen’s “An Enemy of the People,” one of the hottest tickets on Broadway thanks to its star performer, Jeremy Strong, and “The Effect,” an Off Broadway play written by Lucy Prebble, who is also among the producers and writers of “Succession.” In London, Armstrong saw “The Picture of Dorian Gray,” a critically-acclaimed, one-woman adaptation of the Oscar Wilde classic starring Sarah Snook, and is booked to see “Long Day’s Journey Into Night,” starring Brian Cox.

“We took a lot from New York theater,” Armstrong said, nodding to the many stage actors and playwrights who helped make “Succession” a success, “and I hope this season we are giving something back.”

Arian Moayed, who played the investor Stewy Hosseini in “Succession” and starred in a Broadway revival of Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” last year, theorized that the show had some theater-like attributes. “Part of what was cool about the show was that we shot it in a very one-act-y kind of way,” said Moayed. There are so many “Succession” alums onstage that one small downtown theater company in New York, Bedlam, advertised its current show, “The Assassination of Julius Caesar as told by William Shakespeare and George Bernard Shaw,” as “STARRING NO ONE FROM SUCCESSION.”

Here is a look at where the Roys and their retainers are onstage now.

In “Succession,” Cox played Logan Roy, the merciless media mogul at the heart of the series. Cox, a veteran stage actor (his résumé includes five Broadway shows), is now starring in London’s West End in a revival of Eugene O’Neill’s “ Long Day’s Journey Into Night .”

Jeremy Strong

Strong has been acting for years, but his portrayal of Kendall Roy, an angstily ambitious son of Logan Roy, introduced him to a much wider audience. Now Strong is making a hit of the Broadway revival of “ An Enemy of the People ,” in which he stars as Dr. Thomas Stockmann, a moralizing physician who discovers contaminants in the local spa water.

Sarah Snook

Snook’s solo turn in a technology-rich “ The Picture of Dorian Gray ” has been hailed as a tour-de-force performance — she plays not only the title role but also all 25 other parts. The West End production is expected eventually to transfer to Broadway. In “Succession,” she played Logan Roy’s strategic daughter, Shiv.

Peter Friedman

One of the Off Broadway hits of the season, “ Job ,” was a two-hander starring Peter Friedman, who played Frank Vernon, the Waystar RoyCo chief operating officer, and Sydney Lemmon, who had a modest role in the television show as well . The producers of “Job,” which had a sold-out commercial run downtown, are now exploring a possible Broadway transfer.

Juliana Canfield

Juliana Canfield played Kendall Roy’s assistant Jess in “Succession.” Now she is making her Broadway debut with one of the leading roles in “ Stereophonic ,” a behind-the-music play that drew strong reviews during an Off Broadway run.

Natalie Gold

Natalie Gold had a small but memorable role in “Succession” as Kendall Roy’s ex-wife, Rava. She is now performing on Broadway in “ Appropriate ,” a play about a Southern family with troubling secrets; she plays Rachael, a daughter-in-law of the family’s recently deceased patriarch. The play has an enormously successful Broadway run presented by the nonprofit Second Stage Theater that began last fall; it has just begun a second Broadway chapter, moving to the Belasco from the Hayes for a commercial run.

Here’s What We Hope Beyoncé Wears to the 2024 Met Gala

By Hannah Jackson

Will Beyoncé be at the Met Gala ? Only time will tell! But we’ve got some ideas about what she should wear, either way.

For anyone who needs a refresher, the 2024 Met Gala theme is “ Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion ,” which reimagines how we can engage with garments too fragile to be worn again, and highlights the natural realms (land, sea, and sky). On top of that, the dress code is “The Garden of Time,” based on the dystopian short story by J.G. Ballard. We’re anticipating an elevated garden party where florals abound, and perhaps some nods to the story’s macabre end; not to mention looks that relate to the exhibit itself.

When it comes to Beyoncé, the seven-time Met attendee has delivered some truly show-stopping looks. And since she last attended in 2016, Bey has only become more of a fashion superstar, tapping a roster of top designers to create her Renaissance tour looks , shutting down Bushwick to support Luar, and practically ushering in a Westernwear revival with Cowboy Carter . All that to say, she would have her pick of designers, looks, and archives at her disposal.

Nevertheless, we’ve decided to play stylist ourselves. Below, a few looks that we would love to see Beyoncé wear to the 2024 Met Gala.

This sculptural dress from Iris van Herpen needs to be worn by someone with gravitas, lest they be swallowed up by it. Nobody is more up to the task than Beyoncé. The layered, wavy effect dually fits the bill, channelling ripples in still water and the futuristic preservation efforts.

We must admit, seeing Bey wear the Oyster dress to the Met is a real long shot. There are only two iterations of the piece from McQueen’s Shipwreck collection: one is owned by the Met itself, and the other by Kim Kardashian. ( Maddie Ziegler , however, did break out the Oyster’s “little sister” for the 2024 SAG Awards.) But the dress, which looks like it was battered by both waves and time, seems to encapsulate the exhibition’s theme.

Elie Saab’s spring 2003 couture collection feels very in line with Beyoncé’s early career. The sexy, body-hugging dress appears to have come straight out of the Dangerously In Love era, while the sweet floral motifs make it totally on-theme for the Met.

By Alexandra Macon

By Audrey Noble

This wouldn’t be the first time Bey has nodded to Thierry Mugler’s “Les Insectes”–she and her dancers channeled the collection on the Renaissance tour. It would be a true full-circle moment to see Beyoncé bring the original look to the Met Gala carpet, and to come as a pollinator rather than a flower is not only cheekily self-referential, but on-theme too. Jolene could never.

With the musical 'Chicago,' OKC alumnus Katie Frieden brings all that jazz back to Oklahoma

Since she was a little girl, Katie Frieden has adored all that jazz.

"I grew up in a performing arts dance studio in northern Virginia. ... I always loved jazz — always, always loved jazz, anything jazz, any style of jazz," she recalled.

"They really stressed that it's so important to do a lot of ballet, so you can have that technical foundation. ... I did tap, and I did hip hop and contemporary and lyrical and modern and everything. But my favorite was always jazz."

So, starring as Roxie Hart on the 25th anniversary tour of the iconic musical "Chicago" fits Frieden like a slinky flapper dress .

As her almost two-year run with the Tony Award-winning tale of murder, greed and all that jazz winds down, Frieden is bringing the tour's razzle dazzle to her former Sooner State stomping grounds . A 2021 graduate of Oklahoma City University's Ann Lacy School of American Dance and Entertainment, she is leading the tour to OKC for its April 9-14 run at Civic Center Music Hall.

"I've always wanted to perform at the Civic Center. It's going to be emotional for me, for sure. I went to go see shows there when I was in college. I remember I sat up in the nosebleeds watching 'Waitress' because they had student rush tickets. And I was like, 'I really, really, really want to come back and perform here one day,'" she recalled.

What is the musical 'Chicago' about?

An add-on special to OKC Broadway's 2023-24 subscription season , "Chicago" is coming to Oklahoma City for the first time in a decade .

Seen by more than 34 million people worldwide, "Chicago" is the second-longest running show in Broadway history, surpassing the British smash "Cats" in 2014.

The longest-running show currently playing on Broadway , "Chicago" is the work of musical theater legends: Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse wrote the book for the show, which boasts music by John Kander , lyrics by Ebb and choreography by Fosse.

Set in the 1920s, "Chicago" follows Roxie Hart (Frieden), a housewife and nightclub dancer who murders her lover after he threatens to leave her. Desperate to avoid conviction, she dupes the public, the media and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly (played by Kailin Brown on the national tour), by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer, Billy Flynn (Connor Sullivan), to transform her ruthless crime into sensational headlines.

Inspired by true events, "Chicago" was originally a 1926 play by journalist Maurine Dallas Watkins . The musical adaptation's original Broadway production bowed in 1975 and starred Chita Rivera as Velma Kelly, Gwen Verdon as Roxie Hart and Jerry Orbach as Billy Flynn. It ran for more than 900 performances and was nominated for 11 Tonys, but was shut out by another dance smash, "A Chorus Line."

It was the 1996 Broadway revival that turned "Chicago" into an iconic song-and-dance spectacle.

Starring Bebe Neuwirth, Joel Grey and Ann Reinking — a Roxie replacement from the original Broadway production who reprised the role and choreographed the show "in the style of Bob Fosse" — it earned six Tonys, including best musical revival.

It's that version of the show, which now holds the record as the longest running American musical in Broadway and West End history, that's being celebrated with the 25th anniversary tour.

Rob Marshall's 2002 movie adaptation also helped cement "Chicago's" place in pop-culture history: Starring Renée Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Richard Gere, it won six Oscars, including best picture.

What makes the musical 'Chicago' so beloved?

Ahead of her anticipated OKC return, Frieden recently chatted with The Oklahoman by phone about what makes the musical "Chicago" so beloved, what she loves about playing Roxie and more:

Q: Why is 'Chicago' your favorite musical?

I grew up watching the movie. But I also went to see the Broadway production when I was in high school with my mom, and I've just always loved the Fosse choreography. We did a lot of Fosse in college with one of our professors, Vincent Sandoval . ... It was always a style that I personally really connected to, just the isolations and the intensity and the artistry of it.

Q: Why do you think 'Chicago' is still so beloved after all this time?

I think people love to see really good dance on stage, which you don't always see in musicals. ... The other thing I think that makes 'Chicago' so lasting is the relevance that it still provides, even now in the 2020s.

It's based off a true story from 100 years ago, was written 50 years ago in the '70s, and then was revived in the '90s. And each time, it has been relevant to the relationship between celebrities and media and how you can manipulate the media. ... In the 1920s, it was newspapers. Now, it's social media.

Q: How did your passion for dance develop?

I started dance classes when I was 4 years old. My mom first put me in it because she said I just couldn't stop moving, and apparently, I actually lied to my preschool teacher that I was in dance class. My preschool teacher said to my mother, 'Oh, I hear Katie's in dance class,' and my mom was like, 'No, she's not.' But I think she knew then that, 'OK, I need to put Katie in dance class.' (laughs)

As long as I can remember that I've been alive, I've been dancing. It's just such a part of who I am. I don't really know how to explain. Dance just fits, and it connects with me. When I hear music, I just want to move, and it feels right. ...

That's what I love about Fosse's choreography is that all the choreography is so entwined with the music. ... I always considered myself a dancer first. But I hadn't realized until doing Roxie that I've been acting my whole life. Through dance, you're always acting, if you're really dancing and not just focused on the technique.

Q: What else have you been up to since you graduated OCU in May 2021?

Right after, I did summer stock in Woodstock, New York, at Woodstock Playhouse, and we did three performances there. But the one show that was really meaningful to me was we did 'Sweet Charity,' where I got to be Charity Hope Valentine, which is another Fosse show and another Gwen Verdon role. ...

After that, I did a Christmas show at the Surflight Theatre in New Jersey . We did 'A Christmas Carol,' where I played Mrs. Cratchit. Then, I was auditioning for a while, and I did this really cool new show that was happening locally in (Washington) D.C. called 'The Bridgerton Experience.'

It was an immersive production based off of the Netflix show 'Bridgerton.' ... I was the performer portrayed after Daphne. So, it was a lot of dancing and balletic movements, with a little bit of acro. (I was) swinging on a chandelier, which I had never done before. ...

I had two days off, and then my contract (with 'Chicago') started. I was fortunate enough to be able to audition during that 'Bridgerton Experience,' and I couldn't believe it when I got Roxie.

Q: What has it meant to be part of the 'Chicago' 25th anniversary tour?

I joined in July of 2022, so it's been almost two years. Last summer, I got to go to Korea with the tour, which was so amazing. We were there for 15 weeks, and I got to perform for a completely different culture. ... It was really incredible. And then I rejoined the tour again, going straight into it for the second year. ...

Every person that's come through the show feels so connected to it and has such deep love for the show. Knowing that I am somehow connected to people like Chita Rivera, Gwen Verdon, Bebe Neuwirth, Ann Reinking, Bob Fossey, it's insane to me, because those are my heroes ...

I hope that, one day, I could come back to 'Chicago' again and come back to Roxie and come at it with a new perspective. But I do think I'm ready for a change.

Q: What are your thoughts on coming back to OKC with 'Chicago?'

We end our tour in May, so after Oklahoma City, I think a lot of our stops are the one-nighters or the split weeks. So, Oklahoma City is like our last big engagement. ...

One thing that I always wanted to do: We would always have alumni that were touring around the country who would come through the Civic Center, and they would often come to teach a master class at our school. ... My dream was, 'One day, I want to be in that position. I want to be that person that comes through.'

I can't believe that only three years later that that's happening to me. So, I am going to be teaching a master class and doing a little Q&A with the students at OCU. ... It's definitely a full-circle moment for me.

University of Mary student choir celebrates Eucharistic Revival 

By Kate Quiñones

CNA Staff, Apr 7, 2024 / 06:00 am

A group of 28 choral students left the University of Mary (UMary) in Bismarck, North Dakota, in May of last year to embark on a world tour as part of a two-year Eucharistic Revival project, culminating this year in a choral album. 

As part of their Eucharistic Revival project, the students and their director, Rebecca Raber, have been performing and recording music at sites of Eucharistic miracles.

The ultimate goal is to record enough choral songs to create an album focused on Eucharistic hymns. 

“When I heard about the Eucharistic Revival, I knew I wanted to do something from the perspective of liturgical music,” Raber told CNA in an email. 

The choir, known as “ Cappella ,” has been recording a collection of music focused on the Eucharist that includes a wide variety of styles of music such as chant, antiphons, hymns, and polyphony. 

The choir has even commissioned two accomplished composers, Michael John Trotta and Philip Stopford, to compose music on Eucharistic texts.

“Cappella is made for a project like this,” Raber said.

What is Cappella?

Cappella, named for the Latin word for choir, is made up of students from around the country who were “scholarshipped like college athletes” to sing sacred music at UMary, Raber explained.

The project was envisioned by Monsignor James Shea three years ago. Shea, the president of UMary, will be speaking at the National Eucharistic Congress this summer. 

Raber says Cappella is a “one-of-a-kind opportunity” for the students. They rehearse four days a week for 85 minutes, as well as sing at weekday and Sunday Masses, and lead sung solemn vespers weekly. 

Because of the “generous amount” of rehearsal time, Raber said, “we are able to sing an astonishing amount of repertoire, treasures of the Church.”

But the music also benefits the students’ “spiritual formation,” Raber explained. 

When asked about how Cappella has affected his faith, one student, junior Marshall Milless, a communications major from Minnesota, said that singing in Capella has “completely transformed” his faith.

“It elevates my prayer in a way beyond my understanding,” he explained. “I’ve read and heard the Scriptures and prayers in our music, but when singing them, it provides a completely transformative experience, where the Scriptures and prayers become so much more tangible and real.”

Wisconsin bishop accuses Archbishop Viganò of ‘public defamation’

‘i am the one who needed the eucharistic revival’ .

Cappella’s Eucharistic project is part of a larger Newman Task Force for Eucharistic Education , a group that is promoting Eucharistic Revival projects in schools and universities across the country. 

The National Eucharistic Reviva l is a three-year initiative by the U.S. bishops that aims to inspire, educate, and unite the faithful in a more intimate relationship with Jesus in the Eucharist. The revival culminates this year in four national pilgrimages followed by the National Eucharistic Congress in Indianapolis this summer. 

Curstin Larson, a UMary junior studying sacred music, said that at first, she thought the Eucharistic Revival was “exactly what the Church needs.”

“When I first heard about the Eucharistic Revival, I was very excited,” she said. “All of the people who don’t believe in the True Presence, all of the ‘nones,’ all of the lukewarm Catholics — this is the answer to their conversion!”

“Looking back, I am embarrassed by those thoughts,” she continued. “Through Cappella’s work with the Eucharistic Revival … I’ve come to see that I had it all wrong. I am the one who needed the Eucharistic Revival. I am the one who needed to love the Eucharist more, to receive him more attentively, to adore him more fervently.”

Larson said she believes Cappella has “an irreplaceable role” in the Eucharistic Revival.

“Being in Cappella is so much more than singing pretty music; it’s a ministry,” Milless noted.

“There’s a lot of hard work and sacrifice that goes into being a choir like this, but all the hard work pays off whenever I catch a glimpse of somebody moved by the beauty of our music,” Milless said. “My heart becomes filled with joy, and sometimes I can’t hold the tears back!” 

Milless recalled “countless times” where people have approached him to say that Cappella’s music helped them pray. 

“They’ve told me how the music consoled them in a time when they were feeling lost and unsure,” he said. “This music has helped give me a great sense of hope in my personal prayer life when I’ve felt lost and uncertain about my faith.”

Dominic Plummer, a junior from Georgia studying business administration/banking and finance at University of Mary, noted that he has “a unique opportunity” to glorify God during Mass because of Cappella.

The choir, he said, is “eager” to participate in the project intended to “cultivate a revived atmosphere of adoration” of the Eucharist in the community and the Church as a whole. 

“The Eucharist is at the heart of this opportunity and is the foundation of our mission,” he said.

Emily Storick, a sophomore studying music performance, said that singing Eucharistic pieces for the revival has been “a great source of reflection.” 

“I hope when we sing these beautiful Eucharistic pieces, those who hear them are drawn deeper into the mystery of the Mass, and even more so as they receive the body of Christ,” she said. 

During the spring tour to Spain and France, Cappella students sang ancient Eucharistic hymns at sites of the Eucharistic miracles, such as Montserrat and Zaragoza, Spain. 

The pieces, some of which were recorded at sites of Eucharistic miracles, will be compiled into a digital album available on Soundcloud and Spotify.

Raber said she hopes that through these recordings, “the beauty of sacred music” will “draw hearts to Christ in the Eucharist.” 

She said that while the listeners are often affected by the music, she notices more so “from the conductor’s podium is that my Cappella members themselves are deeply affected by the sacred music they sing.”

“Singing sacred music with Cappella is one of the most moving things I have experienced,” said Robert Bushee, a freshman at UMary studying philosophy.

“When we sing, it is a prayer that so completely fills the self with grace that it cannot help but to overflow, and in so doing, create so profoundly united a prayer that it may move each member of the congregation to a greater experience of the Mass and of God himself, which is the great aim of our ministry,” he said. 

Jacob Ganzer, a junior studying mechanical engineering, said that the opportunity to pray through sacred music is “a blessing.”

“I think it is very difficult to be in Cappella and not have it affect your faith,” he added.

Riverfront Revival Reveals 2024 Artist Lineup: Hootie & The Blowfish, Tedeschi Trucks Band, The Revivalists and More

Riverfront Revival has revealed the full artist lineup for its 2024 festival, slated for October 11-12. Returning to North Charleston, S.C.’s scenic Riverfront Park for its third annual staging, this year’s festival boasts a headline performance from Hootie & the Blowfish, helmed by festival organizer Darius Rucker. Other big names booked for this year include Tedeschi Trucks Band, The Revivalists, Paul Cauthen, Jamie Johnson and more.

Genre-bending Americana ensemble Tedeschi Trucks Band will lead the festivities on night one, bringing its distinctive, expansive 12-piece jams immediately after the conclusion of its sprawling Deuces Wild Tour. This performance will be preceded by a total of 5 earlier sets, including appearances from Grace Bowers & The Hodge Podge, Paul Cauthen and The Revivalists.

On Saturday, Oct. 12, Hootie & The Blowfish will cap off its 43-stop Summer Camp with Trucks Tour with a home-state festival headliner set; this marks the band’s first appearance at the festival, following lead solo sets from frontman and festival founder Darius Rucker in 2022 and 2023. To warm the stage for this exciting act, outlaw country and hard rock torchbearers Jamey Johnson and Collective Soul will perform, topping a loaded bill of Arrested Development, Hailey Whitters, Sister Hazel, Shane Profitt, Gritty Flyright and more.

Riverfront Revival defines itself as a “love letter to country music and to South Carolina’s Lowcountry,” celebrating the region’s distinction with a family-friendly event including gourmet food and beverage partners and local cultural installations. On the occasion of last year’s announcement, which featured stagings of Turnpike Troubadours, Band of Horses and Greensky Bluegrass, local legend Rucker spoke with pride on his event, observing that “Charleston’s hometown spirit was on full display last year and showed us what a local music festival meant to this community.” SRE Entertainment Partner Rob Lamble echoed this sentiment, writing “This is a festival built by Charlestonians who want nothing more than to showcase the best our city has to offer with great music, culture and food.”

Tickets for this year’s Riverfront Revival are available now . For more information, visit riverfrontrevival.com .

‘Long Day’s Journey Into Night’ Review: Patricia Clarkson Illuminates an Uneven West End Production

By David Benedict

• ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray’ Review: Sarah Snook Dazzles in a Flashy Stage-Meets-Screen Retelling 2 months ago

No one, wisely, has turned “A Long Day’s Journey Into Night” into an opera — not least because, arguably, Eugene O’Neill’s most famous play already is one. It features extended solo arias mixing memory and pain, and, excluding the maid’s comedy high notes, the near-negligible plot operates as a vocal quartet. The job of the conductor — or, rather, the director — is to weave and build the sound to maximum dramatic effect. Led by Brian Cox (“ Succession ”) and Patricia Clarkson , Jeremy Herrin’s West End cast of soloists is definitely strong. Overall, however, his production doesn’t fully sustain the tricky balancing act.

Given the terrifying and delicious ease he deployed as vicious Logan Roy in “Succession,” Cox makes complete casting sense as tyrannical, self-serving James. At 77, he is a trifle old for the role, which latterly strains credulity when it comes to the physical relationship between him and his sons. But as his bravura final scene demonstrates, he is a commanding presence.

Descending, through drink and exhaustion, to the state that is the closest he ever gets to insight about his controlling, miserly failure with his family, Cox is in fine form in this scene. Furious at the truth-telling of his combative younger son Edmund (Laurie Kynaston) he allows us to see a man just about able — for brief moments only — to glimpse the truth of his own responsibility in the terrible family psychodrama.

But the slow-burn arc of the role isn’t quite within his grasp. His opening scene is pitched too high: The family is self-consciously acting happy now that matriarch Mary (Patricia Clarkson) is home and sober, but Cox’s overly-signaled brightness militates against audience engagement.

The consumption killing Kynaston’s nicely considered Edmund is, mercifully, underplayed. He gently indicates sadness without overstating it and in the final showdown with his father, his self-possession works in balance to his father’s chaos. But elsewhere, like most of the characters in this production except Louisa Harland’s beautifully judged, knowing maid, he seems too isolated, as if playing the end of the play from the beginning.

Neurasthenic, fluttering and fragile, Clarkson’s Mary positively glides through the day of the play with a sweetness that beautifully belies her pain within. Her level of denial is so absolute that she is able to maintain dignity throughout, no matter how upsettingly empty her illusions are.

Herrin knows about secrets and lies in dramas of addiction, having directed Duncan MacMillan’s scorching, award-winning “People, Places, Things.” Here, his pacing of Clarkson’s performance is the strongest line through this production. His handling of her final moments, ultimately placing her calmly sitting on the edge of the stage, is masterly.

Elsewhere, not all of his choices are helpful to so drawn-out a text. Lizzie Clachan’s self-consciously bald, wooden set over-emphasizes the lack of money that James gives to the running of a household. More of a statement than a helpful design, it leaves the creation of atmosphere to the actors and the lighting. Even a lighting designer as skilled as Jack Knowles struggles with the demand.

In a play that goes to some length to point out the intrusive sound of fog horns, it seems antithetical to have so noticeable an additional soundscape that loudly alerts the audience to approaching doom, or to the ethereal quality of Mary’s blissed-out-on-morphine state. This soundscape fires up some moments but flattens out the following scenes. The irony of this is that in so notoriously wordy a play, it’s absence and, crucially, silence which have proved so lethal in their lives.

The cumulative power of a still horribly recognizable journey through desperate, misplaced hope has ensured the longevity of O’Neill’s drama. Despite the unevenness of this production, Clarkson’s tender glow keeps it alive.

Wyndham’s Theatre, London; 780 seats; top £95 ($119), top premium £195 ($245). Opened, reviewed, Apr. 2, 2024; closing Jun 8. Running time: 3 HOURS, 30 MINS.

Go beneath the streets on this tour of the spectacular, mind-bending Moscow Metro! Be awed by architecture and spot the Propaganda , then hear soviet stories from a local in the know. Finish it all up above ground, looking up to Stalins skyscrapers, and get the inside scoop on whats gone on behind those walls.

Know More about this tour

We begin our Moscow tour beneath the city, exploring the underground palace of the Moscow Metro. From the Square of Revolution station, famous for its huge statues of soviet people (an armed soldier, a farmer with a rooster, a warrior, and more), we’ll move onto some of the most significant stations, where impressive mosaics, columns, and chandeliers will boggle your eyes! Moreover, these stations reveal a big part of soviet reality — the walls depict plenty of Propaganda , with party leaders looking down from images on the walls. Your local guide will share personal stories of his/her family from USSR times, giving you insight into Russia’s complicated past and present. Then we’re coming back up to street level, where we’ll take a break and refuel with some Russian fast food: traditional pancakes, called bliny. And then, stomachs satiated, we are ready to move forward! We’ll take the eco-friendly electric trolleybus, with a route along the Moscow Garden Ring. Used mainly by Russian babushkas(grannies) during the day, the trolleybus hits peak hours in the mornings and evenings, when many locals use it going to and from their days. Our first stop will be the Aviator’s House, one of Stalin’s Seven Sisters, followed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs — and you’ll hear the legends of what has gone on inside the walls. Throughout your Moscow tour, you’ll learn curious facts from soviet history while seeing how Russia exists now, 25 years after the USSR.
