Wicked
 |
|
An angry girl with green skin turns into a
major … witch in Wicked. |
Wicked,
the musical story of the witches of Oz, tells the story of two
friends and how they became known as the Wicked Witch of the
West and Glinda the Good Witch.
Though it does
reference the classic Wizard of Oz, most of the story,
based on the best-selling novel by Gregory Maguire and directed
by Tony Award winner Tony Mancello, takes place long before
Dorothy ever set foot on the yellow brick road. Wicked,
which opened in October 2003, is now the most popular show on
Broadway. Its nationwide tour stops at the
Broward
Center
for the Performing Arts Mar. 12 through Apr. 6.
Love Janis
 |
|
Love Janis:
a psychedelic portrait |
Love Janis
is a musical rendition of Janis Joplin’s unmistakable sound and
lyrics and her very touching life. The show begins at the very
beginning of Joplin’s career and leads to her first big break at
the Monterey International Film Festival and her subsequent
stardom. Performers read real letters Joplin wrote to her mother
to show a woman few people actually knew — one who was sad,
lonely and struggled with fame and addiction, which eventually
ended her life. Her story entwines with her incredible songs to
paint a captivating portrait of an incredible artist and
unforgettable woman. See the show at the Parker Playhouse Feb.
29 to Mar. 2.
Martha Mitchell Calling
 |
|
Martha Mitchell: the real Deep Throat |
William Mark
Felt, the real Deep Throat who funneled information about the
Watergate scandal to Woodward and Bernstein, isn’t the person
who really brought down the Nixon administration. Arguably, that
honor belongs to Martha Mitchell, the wife of Attorney General
John Mitchell and a larger-than-life Southern socialite who used
her influence and intelligence to blow the whistle on the former
president and his cronies. Actors will tell that story in
Martha Mitchell Calling from Nov. 28 to Dec. 23 at Actors’
Playhouse at Miracle Theatre in
Coral Gables.
Tickets range from $33 to $100. For more information, visit
www.actorsplayhouse.org or call 305-444-9293.
Spiegelworld
 |
|
Bendy trapeze artists and deliciously
limber performers will perform in this Spiegelworld tent. |
Spiegelworld, billed as the “world’s most beautiful traveling
venue,” features the performance show Absinthe, in which
performers defy gravity, monotony, traditional senses of
morality and the direction in which human body parts are
supposed to bend in a sexual trapeze act, all inside a 350-seat
mirrored tent. Its creator, former Cirque du Soleil clown Voki
Kalfavan, takes center stage with his “dumb assistant Penny” in
The Gazillionaire’s Late Night Lounge, an adult improv talk show
cabaret, followed by a band called Fish Circus. The New York
Times described
Absinthe
as “Cirque du Soleil as channeled through Rocky Horror
Picture Show.” The avant-garde line-up of freakishly sexy
daredevils makes its way to the 21st Street Boardwalk in Miami
Beach from Dec. 20 to Feb. 17. Tickets start at $69. For
details, visit www.spiegelworld.com or call 305-358-5885.
