Events for Friday April 17, 2026
John Malkovich in The Music Critic, McCarter Theatre
Friday April 17, 2026
Schumann fancies himself a “composer”, while Brahms is a “giftless bastard” and Claude Debussy is simply ugly. Aleksey Igudesman has created a sardonic mix of the most evil music critiques of the last centuries written about some of the greatest works of music. Equipped with a frivolous potpourri of musical insults, John Malkovich slips into the role of the evil critic who believes the music of Beethoven, Chopin, Prokofiev and the likes to be weary and dreary. Aleksey Igudesman, Hyung-ki Joo and other great musicians beg to differ and fight back. The grand finale is “The Malkovich Torment”, a horrific review about Malkovich himself, which Igudesman has set to music in a uniquely sardonically humorous way.

'Laughter on the 23rd Floor', Langhorne Players
Friday April 17, 2026
Inspired by Neil Simon’s experience as a writer on Sid Caesar’s Your Show of Shows, this uproarious comedy is a gag-filled, foulmouthed love letter to the dawn of the golden age of American television. Come for the famous playwright, be drawn in by the nostalgia, stay for the madcap jokes and pranks created by the writers of a 1950s sketch comedy TV show starring the charming but maddeningly unstable Max Prince, and leave having laughed throughout what Variety called “the funniest comedy on Broadway in years” and what Newsweek raved is “one of [Simon’s] funniest.”
