Critics' Table

A diverse roundtable of theater critics that review current Broadway and off-Broadway productions.

Intention - To create room for more diverse theater criticism and thought. To offer jobs to rising theater journalists in the community and offer different perspectives. Special Thanks to the BIPOC Critics Lab The BIPOC Critics Lab, developed and led by cultural critic Jose Solís, is an educational space for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) who haven't been welcomed into cultural criticism, whether due to systemic oppression, lack of opportunity, or because they didn’t know they were allowed to see themselves as critics.

episode 3: Birthday Candles


Debra Messing (WILL & GRACE) returns to the stage in BIRTHDAY CANDLES as Ernestine Ashworth, who spends her 17th birthday agonizing over her insignificance in the universe. Soon enough, it’s her 18th birthday. Even sooner, her 41st. Her 70th. Her 101st. Five generations, dozens of goldfish, an infinity of dreams, one cake baked over a century. What makes a lifetime… into a life? A writer of "freewheeling ambition" (Charles Isherwood, The New York Times), Noah Haidle makes his Broadway debut with a poignant new play as fearless in scope as it is tremendous in heart.


Hear from critics Juan Michael Porter II, Bedatri D. Choudhury, and Christian Lewis as they review BIRTHDAY CANDLES.
