Theater journalists Jesse Green (New York Magazine), Patrick Healy (The New York Times) and Michael Musto (MUSTO! The Musical/Out.com) join Michael Riedel and Susan Haskins to focus on the upcoming New York theater season, which is just revving up with several star-driven plays (most notably Daniel Craig in Betrayal) dominating public interest and ticket sales. At the same time, a number of other new, but lesser-known shows also are entering the fray in search of success, and our panel discusses the ones they most look forward to, as well as ones that are already facing problems.
The productions they discuss besides Betrayal, include: Big Fish, The Glass Menagerie, No Man's Land/Waiting for Godot, Domesticated, Twelfth Night/Richard III, Fun Home, A Night with Janis Joplin, A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder and The Winslow Boy.

Theater Talk is a series devoted to the world of the stage. It began on New York television in 1993 and is co-hosted by Michael Riedel (Broadway columnist for the New York Post) and series producer Susan Haskins.
The program is one of the few independent productions on PBS and now airs weekly on Thirteen/WNET in New York and WGBH in Boston. Now, CUNY TV offers New York City viewers additional opportunities to catch each week's show. (Of course, Theater Talk is no stranger to CUNY TV, since the show is taped here each week before its first airing on Thirteen/WNET.)
The series is produced by Theater Talk Productions, a not-for-profit corporation and is funded by contributions from private foundations and individuals, as well as The New York State Council on the Arts.
