PLAYBILL.COM'S THEATRE WEEK IN REVIEW, Nov. 15-21: Now Departing
The spiraling state of the national economy has bred lamentable habits in those affected by the financial downtown ? that is to say, everyone. We no longer flinch when we pick up the paper and read that another 500 points have been sliced off the Dow. And here in the New York theatre community, we would only begin to wonder if a week passed without a Broadway show announcing its premature closure.

'Twilight'
Judging by the run on opening-night tickets (and the high-decibel screams that greeted a recent local preview), plenty of folks don't care what kind of movie "Twilight" is, only that it is.

Magical car flies off with 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' show
W.C. Fields famously turned up his bulbous nose at working with scene-stealing children and dogs. If he were still around to be cast in the show that has just opened at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, he'd have something else to add to his professional enemies list: a flying car.

My life in art: How Willem de Kooning played Cupid
The artist Willem de Kooning changed my life. Before De Kooning I had no real interest in art. Constable was for the top of cake tins and Warhol seemed no more than a competent graphic designer.

New on DVD this week
WALL-E (2008, Buena Vista, G, $30) ? Prepare to be wowed by Pixar's latest masterpiece. In a post-apocalyptic future almost devoid of life, an industrious, trash-compacting robot grooves to "Hello, Dolly," pals around with a cockroach and falls in love with a fellow gizmo.

Mister Foe
''I like creepy guys,'' says Kate Breck (Sophia Myles) in a bar, after one too many drinks, to the young lad named Hallam Foe (Jamie Bell). In Mister Foe -- a pervy and poignant tale of a boy on the brink of manhood, still reeling from the death of his mother -- the late-20s Kate and the just-18 Hallam tumble into a strange romance.

Circle Theatre's 'Blondes' will leave you breathless
"Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," the musical comedy set to a flapper era beat that is receiving a rare, breathlessly vivacious revival at Circle Theatre, is every bit the pure fluff that its title suggests.

'Tropic' just gets better on DVD
I loved Ben Stiller's satire Tropic Thunder on first viewing. It was savage, hilarious and dangerous because it dared to mock Hollywood while mucking about with racial stereotypes, sexual orientation, drug use, the depiction of the mentally challenged and the iconography of U.S. war movies.

Change partners and dance
DESPITE the Mozart reference in its title, Stephen Sondheim's A Little Night Music is scarcely grand opera. But neither was it slumming by UNLV Opera Theatre to turn its sights to a Broadway musical, as it did Nov. 14-16. Calling Sondheim a "Broadway composer" is like saying Haydn wrote a few symphonies (more like 104).

The some what unusual sounds of Six Toes are wholly befitting of their moniker in that it that they are both non-threatening and familiar and yet at the same time distinctly odd and a little bit disturbing.
