...allies have badly misplaced New Orleans' priorities at a time when crime, housing and other ills are at a peak. "The city's falling apart, and they go after one of the few things that are still really working," complained float designer Henri Schindler. Agreed carnival historian Errol Laborde: "We were just getting over the David Duke mess, and this hits. This has turned brother against brother for no good reason...

This chillingly believable Broadway play has as its sole character Beverly's mother Florence (unforgettably played by Tracey Ullman), a ferocious stage mama who would stop at nothing...
