“I was lucky enough to see this at The Royal Court and it was unforgettable. John Lithgow transforms into a complex, curmudgeonly Roald Dahl and leaves you with your jaw on the floor by the play's end. Sophisticated in its writing, Giant is deceptively witty, haunting and timely.”
CHESS
The powerhouse duo that is Lea Michele (Think: Glee) and Aaron Tveit (Think: Moulin Rouge), star in the (underrated) musical CHESS (music by Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus—yes, ABBA).
Two of the greatest chess players in the world (one American and the other Soviet) compete for something beyond victory, the woman between them is caught in a high-stakes battle of desire. The musical allegorically reflected the Cold War tensions present in the 1980s.
