À propos de cette écoute

 For 30 years, Theater Talk has been appointment listening on BTPM NPR, featuring the insights of theater critic and historian, Anthony Chase.Chase co-hosted Theater Talk with Buffalo Broadcast Hall of Famer Jim Santella for many years. These days it's Peter Hall.With more than 20 active producing theater companies in Buffalo alone, not to mention Shea’s Performing Arts Center and the Shaw Festival at nearby Niagara on the Lake, Chase and Hall keep their calendars full trying to see and share their insights on as many shows as possible.But Theater Talk is anything but a dry community arts listing service. Instead, with affection, good humor, and just the occasional rant, the segment provides snapshot reviews, recommends local productions, analyzes the Western New York theater scene and occasionally looks at what's happening on Broadway and across the nation.Chase is the founder of the Artie Awards, which recognizes excellence in Western New York theater and raises money for AIDS charities.Ⓒ Western New York Public Broadcasting Association 2025 Art Divertissement et arts du spectacle Politique et gouvernement

      This week on Theater Talk, Anthony and Peter note the passing of Saul Elkin, at age 93, founder of Shakespeare in Delaware Park (the day after their 50th anniversary production of TWELFTH NIGHT closed) as well as the Jewish Repertory Theatre. Shea's Buffalo Theater's expansion plans are (temporarily, we hope) on hold pending the planning board's orders. The Evangola Community Theater opened with HERE WE SIT, a comedy, up through tomorrow evening. Anthony headed to New England first to the North Shore Music Theatre to see Buffalo's Michele Ragusa as "The Wicked Witch of the West" in THE WIZARD OF OZ (music by Buffalo's Harold Arlen), and at the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine Rob McClure and Bianca Marroquin (back as "Roxy" on Broadway in the fall) star in GUYS AND DOLLS.

    • Theater Talk: Shakespeare in Delaware Park's TWELFTH NIGHT merits multiple viewings. Also mentioned, a Long Island actor with a career re-enacting Napoleon... even though "his French is horrific!"
