Sherie Rene Scott and her deliciously entertaining mini-musical have arrived on Broadway, an emergency, end-of-season replacement for the Roundabout Theatre Company's revival of Lips Together, Teeth Apart which imploded during rehearsals. Everyday Rapture, which opened Thursday at the Roundabout's American Airlines Theatre, fits just fine into a large space, much bigger that off-Broadway's Second Stage Theatre where the production had a successful run last year. But then the bubbly, blond, multitalented Scott has one of those quirky, expansive theater personalities that can really fill a stage.
She starred on Broadway in the Max Liebman production of "Billy the Kid," and co-starred with her then-husband, James Karen, in regional productions of "Brigadoon" and "Finian's Rainbow."
Teacher vs. pupil. Let the conflict begin. Or in this case, the play—Donald Margulies's Collected Stories, in an exemplary Broadway revival which Manhattan Theatre Club opened Wednesday at its Samuel J. Friedman Theatre.

A Q&A with the team behind the New Group's provocative new musical
A permanent state of disaffection runs through this visually striking, musically adventurous take on the 2004 best-selling album that Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong and director Michael Mayer have turned into a show. The musical is short, some 95 minutes. Just right for an MTV generation weaned on YouTube clips and music videos. American Idiot, in fact, plays like one. Wildly diverting to look at, the show has the barest wisp of a story and minimal character development. At best, its slacker guys are sketchy portraits, prototypes rather than real people. Fortunately, there are compensations, most notably the show's highly theatrical, punk-rock score, sung by a high-energy cast.
