It was lovely to hear Mark Anthony Green chat about his movie Opus at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social! Opus is an eerie Willy Wonkaesque dive into the dark side of fame. John Malkovich is delightfully bizarre, and Ayo Edebiri is exceptional. 🎵🔪 #OpusMovie #horror #filmsky 📽️

THE BRAILLE ENCYCLOPEDIA: BRIEF ESSAYS ON ALTERED SIGHT by Naomi Cohn, the latest hybrid title from @rosemetalpress.bsky.social, is an unforgettable series of poetic "definitions" unlike anything you've ever read. More in my highly recommended review! @thirdcoastrvw.bsky.social #BookRecommendation

POTUS at Steppenwolf Theatre. POTUS doesn't appear but the story is about seven women in the White House who try to keep him out of trouble. Very funny, sort of an extended SNL sketch. Nancy and Kim wrote a joint review, including interviewing each other. thirdcoastreview.com/2023/11/08/s...

Nancy, the theater nerd here. I've seen a lot of plays lately but Jen Silverman's Witch by the Artistic Home really offers food for thought. Yes, there's a devil with a marketing plan but so much more. See it at the Den Theatre. thirdcoastreview.com/2023/11/12/s...
