		<description><![CDATA[SWEET There’s a mildness that prevents Lorre and Remington’s handling, played out on a set of black furniture adorably marked with chalk, from becoming an unfettered tour de force. (A few bald comic patches could use a directorial comb-over.) But the duo’s gentle playfulness has its own rewards — first and foremost, a chuckling sincerity. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chicanery: The act of deceiving. This is the sad state within which David Jette, playwright/director and once-critic at LA Theatre Review has found himself.  He has come to the conclusion that Los Angeles Theatre Criticism is an &#8220;act of deception&#8221;.  In a recent post entitled Why I Stopped Writing Theatre Reviews David has &#8211; with [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a good question.  The Times did a story earlier in the year [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Where the McNulty/Morris &#8220;dialogue&#8221; in the Los Angeles Times was a veritable love-fest, Don Shirley keeps the pressure on the Los Angeles Times&#8217; lack of theatre coverage in its own back yard.  Especially of the Shakespearian variety.

		<description><![CDATA[PROCREATION Review by Charles McNulty &#8211; LA Times There’s something undecided about the tone of “Procreation,” the tiresomely outlandish family comedy by Justin Tanner that&#8217;s receiving its world premiere at the Odyssey Theatre under the direction of David Schweizer. With its grotesque caricatures and zingy retorts, the play aims for lowest-common-denominator laughs. Yet the cast [...]]]></description>
