It should come as no surprise that this List loves the theater of Bertolt Brecht, both for its anti-realist anti-illusionist anti-emotionalist "Epic Theater" style and for its helpful reminders of how much capitalism sucks. People are saying good things bout this production of a stone classic (it had better be good — the last NYC production was off the hook).
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: As far as I'm concerned, Miss Ada remains the finest Modern Israeli restaurant in New York, and one of the best dining spots of any kind in Brooklyn.
