Review: ‘The Taming of the Shrew’
Nine years ago, when Shakespeare ‘70 last staged The Taming of the Shrew, the site was the Open Air Theatre in Washington Crossing Park. In fact, Shrew kicked off the summer season as it had done each year since 1970 (that’s how the group got its name). But three years back, the state decided to get a bit greedy and tried to assess each community group that used the theater for a two-week period heavy insurance rates and demanded other regulations that made producing a summer show too difficult for troupes with little money.

Review: 'Bus Stop'
It is rather sad that amid the rush to embrace the nostalgia of the ‘50s, playwright William Inge seems to have been largely overlooked. Everyone can’t wait to re-discover Tennessee Williams, but Inge, who covered many of the same themes, has been neglected. Of course people remember his Picnic, probably because of the film, but a play with ideas and insights such as Bus Stop? Probably not. It, too, was made into a movie starring Marilyn Monroe, badly miscast. And now it is back in a fine revival at Princeton Summer Theater, on the Princeton University campus at Hamilton Murray Theatre.
