It will be curious to see who will step up to the plate to get this new work on the boards. That hot actor who had all the women's and some men's blood pressure rising in the Broadway production of Indiscretions is returning to the stage. During his hiatus from the stage, Law was dabbling in big screen productions including Wilde, eXistenZ and the soon to be released The Talented Mr. Ripley. The Playhouse at the Victorian Arts Centre in Melbourne, Australia is playing host to Jane Austen's classic Pride And Prejudice through to October 2. Fans of Austen will enjoy performances by Aussies Lucy Taylor and William McInnes.
Theatre returns to television in a series called Stages on Screen.
The TV incarnation will not be a live performance taping but a filmed adaptation. Also on deck for the six part premiere season will be Anna Deavere Smith's Twilight, Los Angeles directed by Mark Levin . I recently saw Harvey Fierstein's Torch Song Trilogy on video. Although it is over a decade old, the story is as relevant today as it was in the mid 80s. Playwright, actor and gay rights activist, Mr. Fierstein will be visiting Toronto, Canada, on November 12 as part of the Proud Voices speaker series.
