Theater Talk: Spring Critics 2011

On this episode of Theater Talk, we sit down with a panel of critics to review Broadway shows from the 2011 Spring season. They look at "The Mother****** With the Hat", and why it surprised critics with it's vibrant acting and strong dialog, though they focus on some of the weak points of Chris Rock's acting. They discuss "Jerusalem" and focus on whether or not it truly is a modern day masterpiece, they talk about "Good People" and whether the plot is more intricate then it appears, as well as provide their critiques on some of the musicals such as "Anything Goes", "Sister Act", and "The Book of Mormon".
Theater Talk is a series devoted to the world of the stage. It began on New York television in 1993 and is co-hosted by Michael Riedel (Broadway columnist for the New York Post) and series producer Susan Haskins.
The program is one of the few independent productions on PBS and now airs weekly on Thirteen/WNET in New York and WGBH in Boston. Now, CUNY TV offers New York City viewers additional opportunities to catch each week's show. (Of course, Theater Talk is no stranger to CUNY TV, since the show is taped here each week before its first airing on Thirteen/WNET.)
The series is produced by Theater Talk Productions, a not-for-profit corporation and is funded by contributions from private foundations and individuals, as well as The New York State Council on the Arts.
