Playwright Richard Nelson is a little conventional for this List, but in the midst of The Quarantine an online world premiere performance of a major new play seems worth at least noting.  This is the latest installment in Nelson's long-running Rhinebeck Panorama, and if you're interested in watching bougie Caucasian-Americans revealing themselves in response to political events, this is the place.  To prepare, you can watch the preceding plays in this cycle on Channel Thirteen's Theater Close-Up website (where they'll be running till May 5).

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  We should be drinking Martinis during this, right?  Pour 2 oz. Gin and 1 oz. dry Vermouth into an ice-filled cocktail shaker, stir, and strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe.  Garnish with a lemon twist or, if you must, an olive.
