Leah S. Goodman: My Fear That Tumblr As We Know It Is Ending
More than once when I have felt down about something -- a fight with a friend or a bad grade on a test in school -- I have resorted to Tumblr.

Cecil Castellucci: What You Miss Out On When You Try To Fit In (NEW BOOK)

Celebrating Blitz magazine – style bible for 80s club kids
Eighties fashion gave us many things – batwings, shoulder-pads and big hair among them. Then there were style magazines, publications dedicated to the young and the cool, long before the word "hipster" entered the mainstream.

Rappelling 15 stories, for a good cause
My wife was no help at all when I came home with my latest MisFits proposal. “How would you feel,” I asked, “about me rappelling down a 15-story building?” It says right in the Marriage Handbook that any spouse confronted with that question is supposed to stop what she’s doing and say something like: “No, you can’t...

Punk Nails Reach New Heights
When we think of punk nails, chipped black nail polish is the first thing that comes to mind. (We don't know too many misfits that flaunt fresh manicures.) But we certainly didn't expect the stars who showed up on the 2013 Met Gala red carpet to follow suit. Instead, they trusted celebrity manicurists like Deborah...

Macbeth, Mary and Midler: Solo Turns on Broadway
One actor alone onstage — not necessarily my idea of a good time at the theater. Yet one-person shows continue to have enormous appeal: for actors (the ultimate ego trip), for producers (less expensive to stage), and very often for critics, who find it hard to resist a showboating star. I usually do, but two...

Colm Toibin's 'Testament Of Mary' Brings Jesus' Mother Down To Earth

A ‘Testament’ to greatness

Jay Weston: Mamet's American Buffalo Opens at the Geffen Playhouse!
About two weeks ago I wrote a rather scathing, almost angry review on Huffington about David Mamet's HBO film, which he wrote and directed, on the possible murder of an actress by music mogul Phil Spector. Angry, yes, because I know how good Mamet can be when he's cooking on all cylinders. You see, many years ago,...
