some readings

Some worthwhile reading today...

-I'm glad Ben Brantley has given his imprimatur to the Atlantic Theatre's fine staging of the Pinter "bookends" The Room and The Celebration. Get tickets here (if you still can)

-Former Royal National Theatre head Richard Erye reflects on his experience directing Hamlet in Ceaucescu's Romania, after a recent visit back to that country.

-And to those familiar with the grand old Wilbur Theatre in Boston (home to many great out-of-town Broadway tryouts of the past), our new "patrons" at Clear Channel are about to abandon it, to god knows what fate. Read it in the Globe here.
