		<description><![CDATA[Sister-hood is powerful. African-American playwright and poet Ntozake Shange's celebrated choreopoem, "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf," fuses poetry and dance. It is an expressive and eloquent pastiche of 20 poems, dance, and music that dramatizes the giddy highs and gut-wrenching lows of seven typical urban black women embarked on frequently painful but ultimately empowering journeys of self-discovery. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On tap in Danny Mullen's "A Tuff Shuffle" is home-made gumbo, cooked up by Louis Armstrong himself on his dressing-room hotplate, and an intimate but wide-ranging and remarkably frank and fearless PG-13-rated autobiographical monologue, punctuated with brief but bracing reprises of Armstrong's greatest (vocal) hits, such as "Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans?"; "(What Did I Do to Be So) Black and Blue?"; "A Kiss to Build a Dream On"; "What a Wonderful World"; and "Hello, Dolly!"]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tennessee Williams meant for Stanley be a crude, lower-class, but upward-aspiring American ethnic of Polish descent and for his and Stella's apartment to be a pressure cooker, but I seriously doubt if he meant for Stanley to explode into physical violence -- smashing crockery, manhandling Stella, throttling and eventually raping Blanche -- as often as he does in the current Theater of the American South presentation of "A Streetcar Named Desire." Indeed, the violence that Hurricane Stanley inflicts on his sister-in-law and wife and their meager possessions necessitates lengthy scene changes that dissipate dramatic tension.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Incendiary performances by Tiffany Haas and Christine Dwyer really lit up the Durham Performing Arts Center stage during the May 3rd press-night performance of "Wicked," whose four-week return engagement runs through May 27th. Haas is delightfully dim as the insufferably snobbish and self-centered wealthy blonde beauty Galinda, who ironically comes to be known as Glinda the Good; and Dwyer is simply wonderful as her raven-haired, green-skinned, hair-trigger-tempered socially conscious college roommate Elphaba, a pariah at Shiz University who will become the Wicked Witch of the West as her skill at sorcery manifests itself.]]></description>
