Prefer your comedy with some psychological thrills instead of social satire? Then check out Dumbwaiter, a one-acter by Harold Pinter, at the Explosives B Cabaret. It's a vaudeville comedy, in the tradition of Laurel and Hardy, that will keep you on the edge of your seat in suspence (according to director Peter Sellars). A piece for two actors--we can't seem to escape these British two-man works this weekend-Dumbwaiter pre-dates the playwright's well-known "Homecoming," and might be interesting for those who'd like to see early Pinter, as well as those...

From the moment the curtain rises, it is obvious why director Bob Fosse's interpretation of this 1972 hit musical comedy won five Tony awards. Fosse (Lenny, the screen versions of Cabaret, Damn Yankees, and more) directs a flawless set of Broadway dramatists; the choreography is tight, the vocals searing, and the action both amusing and touching. This production is comical, profound and very sexy--quite a unique combination of qualities for any stage production...
