  3. BROADWAY REVIEW: Audience subscribes to 'Newsies' charms

    <span class=&quot;dateline" style="text-align: justify; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">NEW YORK &mdash;</span>There is something uniquely appealing, entertainment history reveals, about urban urchins in cloth caps, be they Parisian waifs, London pickpockets or unflaggingly optimistic New York orphans. If they sing and dance and have lost a parent or two, all the better. And if they sell newspapers for a living?

  11. Play Review: 'Desire Under the Elms' an emotional, visceral ride

    Adultery, infanticide, overtones of incest and patricidal urges: Eugene O&rsquo;Neill&rsquo;s 1924 American classic, &ldquo;Desire Under the Elms,&rdquo; with its deliberate evocation of mythic Greek tragedy, caused an uproar when it was first produced. Indeed, a 1926 production in Los Angeles was deemed so obscene that its actors were arrested.

His acting legacy, which included the films of John Cassavetes and originating the role of Brick in &quot;Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" on Broadway, was a catalog of masculinity in free-fall, self-doubt and sometimes willful self-glorification.
