Concert Review: Carol Lipnik at Joe’s Pub

The Coney Island Native will end her three week residency at Joe’s Pub this Thursday night which celebrates her latest album “Almost Back to Normal”. Her genre is tough to define, although her covers and original songs favor a bohemian folk sound. Whatever she sings, she has an awe inspiring range and a stage presence that is otherworldly.

Theater Review: Don’t Bother Me, I Can’t Cope
Instead of showering each other with yearly praise and admiration, Hollywood might have taken some lessons from the stouthearted York Theatre’s recent staging of Don’t Bother Me, I Can’t Cope. The 1972 musical revival kicked off their Winter 2016 “Musicals in Mufti” series. Mufti, as noted on the program, is done “in street clothes; without the trappings of a full production”. Each of the cast members carries the complete script and score and they have a limited number of hours to rehearse before a live audience attends. They clearly put the time to good use and gave fresh voice to this rarely performed gem of a show. Even more impressive is that these dedicated artists rarely consulted their scripts throughout the night. [Read more…] about Theater Review: Don’t Bother Me, I Can’t Cope
