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.

David Mamet is more interested in sounding off than writing a good play.

Get the story on why NYT fired Isherwood !

[@williamgardiner2010]

After slamming 'London Imports', Elisabeth VIncentelli omits to mention that the production of A View From the Bridge by Ivo van Howe is from London's Young Vic/Wyndhams' theatre with Mark Strong leading the cast. She also says she looks forward to The Father but doesn't realise the Florian Zeller play is only coming to Broadway because of the Theatre Royal Bath/London West End production translated by Christopher Hampton and it is THIS version coming to New York. Is this New York Post drama critic just lazy when it comes to doing a bit of homework on productions she is due to review.
