      [ V ]  Beethoven, As I Knew Him
      Review by Bob Verini

      Part concert, part lecture/demo and part -- a small part -- dramatized play, Hershey Felder's "Beethoven, As I Knew Him" makes up in passion what it may lack in warmth.

      [ V ]  Gigi
      Review by David Benedict

      While McCartney's singing as Rosemary Clooney was perfection - the kind of homage not everyone can pay in terms of imitating (and more) a very particular voice - the show itself, directed by Kelley McKinnon, was marred.

      [ V ]  Timon of Athens
      Review By KAREN FRICKER

      It's hardly Shakespeare's most coherent or elegant text, but "Timon of Athens" emerges as a play for today in Lucy Bailey's strikingly imaginative production for the Globe.
