The Oberlin Review · New York, NY
Nearby: New York, NYBecause of the dark and twisted nature of many Grimm’s fairy tales, I anticipated of Oberlin Opera Theater’s production of Hänsel und Gretel to be right in line with the lapsing spooky season. However, guest stage director Kevin Newbury creates a world that dazzles and delights, set in New York City in the midst of the ’70s housing crisis. This is beautifully realized from the design standpoint. The chorus, a diverse array of iconic characters, fill Scenic Designer and Lecturer in Theater Laura Carlson-Tarantowski’s elegant and lived-in set design. Street art, featuring an iconic Cat Stevens lyric towers overhead as onstage flashlights, casts complex shadows, and a giant food truck serves as the Witch’s cottage. The Witch herself, though not introduced musically until the very end, makes many strong appearances.
Pacific Coast Business Times · New York, NY
Nearby: New York, NYBy Steven Fishoff There comes a time in many people’s lives when they face a choice: remain where they are comfortable or take a chance on something they believe in. For me, that moment came when I left an established career in New York and moved my family to Southern California. My daughter was just six months old. I was leaving behind the familiarity of an industry I understood, professional relationships I had developed and the security that comes with knowing your surroundings. I wasn’t leaving because I lacked opportunities. I was leaving because I wanted to create one. After years of working in the apparel industry, including managing a dress division, I decided to pursue something different: building a business of my own. That decision eventually led to the creation of Jenna Ashley Inc. What I learned along the way has shaped how I think about entrepreneurship, responsibility and the importance of continuing to move forward.
The Lafayette · New York, NY
Nearby: New York, NYThe women’s basketball team fell Monday to St. John’s University 95-37 in New York in a one-sided contest before flipping the script with a blowout victory of their own at home against Wagner College on Thursday. On Monday, the Leopards (1-1 overall) faced the Big East opponent without several key players out with injuries, including senior guard Teresa Kiewiet and junior guard Talia Zurinskas. The team scored fewer points and surrendered more points than in any game last season. “We have to control what we can control,” senior forward Tasha Chudy said. “We have to just keep going on.” The Maroon and White got the scoring started, with sophomore guard Haylie Adamski knocking down a mid-range jump shot from the left baseline for a 2-0 lead. The Red Storm (1-0 overall) responded with a 3-pointer to take the lead and never looked back. St. John’s led for the remainder of the game.

CITY · New York, NY
Nearby: New York, NYJukebox musicals tend to fall into two categories: a fabricated story manufactured to cram in as many hit songs as possible, or a biographical sketch of a major artist told using their songs. The 2023 Broadway musical from Alicia Keys falls somewhere in between. “Hell’s Kitchen, ” which runs through November 8 at West Herr Performing Arts Center, brings a ‘90s New York City R&B family love story to the Rochester Broadway Theatre League season. The musical, penned by Alicia Keys and playwright Kristoffer Diaz, features Keys’ biggest hits as well as a few new songs for the show. “Hell’s Kitchen” uses elements of Keys’ adolescent biography — white mom, absent father, being raised in the city, a love of music. However, the events and characters follow a simple coming of age story that’s less about providing insight into Keys or her career and more a vehicle for iconic songs, high-energy dance numbers and a breathtaking visual landscape.

Chelsea Community News · New York, NY
Nearby: New York, NYBY ARTHUR SCHWARTZ | You wouldn’t have known it till late October, but there are two sides to the controversy over banning horse-drawn carriages in Central Park—or anywhere else in New York. In October, I found myself meeting with drivers represented by Transport Workers Union Local 100, who were aghast at what was happening to their livelihood. And do you know what? They have quite a case—so much so that I wrote a letter on their behalf to NYC Corporation Counsel Steven Banks threatening to sue the “minute the ink was dry” on an approval of a bill passed by the City Council on October 22. When I looked at their complaint, I found that the city was establishing a precedent which would let it close down any other lawful business in NYC—not based on some public health emergency—but based on noise being made by a small sector of the public. One of my clients, Medet Fidan, is a former yellow cab driver.
