‘Merrily We Roll Along’ Review: Daniel Radcliffe, Jonathan Groff and Lindsay Mendez Lead a Broadway Revival That’s More Art Than Commerce

Trish Deitch Commercial theater — theater written mostly to entertain audiences, for the purpose of making money — is the enemy in Stephen Sondheim and George Furth’s 1981 musical, “Merrily We Roll Along,” now on Broadway at the Hudson Theatre. According to “Merrily,” it’s theater that doesn’t sacrifice its profundity to make it easy on audiences that has any real value at all.

Patti LuPone review: Broadway treasure brings down the house — on Fire Island

later told People she gave up her card because the union “doesn’t support actors at all.”In “Company” by Stephen Sondheim, the actress’ tart-tongued socialite sang during the song “Ladies Who Lunch,” “Look into their eyes and you’ll see what they know — everybody dies!” But LuPone, a volcanic presence in and out of character, embodies more the mantra of her fame-hungry “Gypsy” character Mama Rose: “Anybody who stays home is dead!” So it was wonderful to see the fiery actress lively and out of the house, if not on Broadway, singing at the Ice Palace nightclub in Cherry Grove Saturday night. The sold-out event was a coup for Fire Island.

‘The Horror of Dolores Roach’ Is a Sweeney Todd Riff That Lacks Bite: TV Review

Alison Herman TV Critic Nonfiction podcasts have proven to be a rich vein for the IP-starved TV industry to mine, from true crime (“Dirty John”) to unauthorized biography (“The Dropout”). Scripted podcasts have been a less fruitful source of material, with the first season of Sam Esmail’s star-studded “Homecoming” serving as the sole exception to date. Even then, luring Julia Roberts to the small screen likely had more to do with the show’s success than the story’s medium of origin. “The Horror of Dolores Roach,” a new series produced by Blumhouse Television for Amazon Prime Video, seems unlikely to reverse this trend. “Dolores Roach” began as a one-woman play called “Empanada Loca,” but found a broader audience in audio form. Released under the auspices of Gimlet Media, the studio recently absorbed into parent company Spotify after drastic cuts, the retitled podcast riffed on the urban legend of Sweeney Todd, the mythical barber made famous by Stephen Sondheim. (Disclosure: I previously worked at Gimlet’s sister studio The Ringer, also owned by Spotify.) “Dolores Roach” changed the antihero’s name, gender and nationality — but kept the cannibalism and twisted love story that still define the character.
