Henrik Ibsen was a true great. No cast, no director should be allowed to desecrate that greatness by a mediocre performance of an Ibsen work. I am glad to say that the StageLight & Magic production team and cast are completely innocent of any such crime in their performance of ...

Caliban's Rebellion is a dramatic adaptation of a work of Shakespeare in typical CenterStage Productions' style. Drawing on The Tempest for inspiration Caliban's Rebellion attempts to paint Caliban in a more forgiving light and give a slightly different view from the traditional interpretation. So, you may be wondering… is it ...

This movie was the last of the Best Picture nominees I got a chance to look at. I was initially hesitant to seek this one out primarily because of Day-Lewis' performance in Gangs of New York. While I admired that performance it was completely at odds with everything I remembered ...

Michael Clayton is the second Best Picture Academy Award nominated film for 2008 we'll be looking at before the night in question. And no, it's not about American Football (or 'Football' as the Americans like to call it), but rather a legal drama in which we see George Clooney, Tom ...

Remember Knocked Up? Geek meets girl. Geek sleeps with girl. Out pops baby. Well, Juno is more of the same... except all the parent's to be are highschoolers.

What do you get when you mix a gangly Jamaicanesque hunter, a pack of rabid parasitoids and an average small American town? You get a pointless butchering of two Science Fiction franchise icons with assorted plot-holes and miss-steps. Imagine Britney Spear's comeback performance at the VMA's, but with acid-spitting Aliens, ...

Christmas Inc., The Musical was the debut production for the Johnpillai and Friends Theater Group, or Freshly Brewed Theater as they would like to be known. It ranks, in its own quirky way, amongst the most convoluted, confusing and downright nonsensical piece of theater I've ever witnessed. And, just in ...

There are at most four Sri Lankan artists worthy of the name. One of them is Muhanned Cader. His latest exhibition, Drawingsculpture in red & black, opened last night at the Barefoot Gallery. It is possibly the best thing he has ever done - which is saying a lot - ...

A political satire in a land and age when real world politics could easily be mistaken for a farce. Corrupt politicians, inflation, broken promises, weapons of mass destruction and the Irish. With such a wealth of material to draw from you'd expect any serious attempt at political satire to write ...
