by Joshua Mamis | May 17, 2013 12:01 pm
Clybourne Park makes you laugh, think, laugh again, cringe. Then it rips a super-glued Band-Aid off of liberal white skin, exposing all the raw, tribal bias white people prefer to think they don’t possess.
If that doesn’t sound like fun, you’re wrong.

On a Thursday afternoon, world-renowned playwright Athol Fugard sent Gordon Edelstein his new play. Edelstein read the play and called Fugard.

“Mexican Panini” Hits Fair Haven
by Thomas MacMillan | May 13, 2013 12:00 pm | Comments (2)
Jose Luis Palacios pulled a breaded chicken breast filet out of the refrigerator and slipped it into bubbling hot oil to start a “chicken parmesan” sandwich.
