I would like to offer my list of the TOP TEN BEST PLAYS and the 5 LEAST FAVORITE PLAYS for 2024. This year I was able to take in 43 plays – and I assure you that my list is totally unlike ANY of the various people that review NYC theatre. It is ironic for me to note that my very favorite play of 2024 – Our Class – was produced by the very same company that produced the second to worst play that I saw all year – The Merchant of Venice. I have NO idea what happened to this company in the month in between productions – but it wasn’t good! Please click on the title of the following plays to read the full review:
10. Three Houses
9. Russian Troll Farm
8. The Following Evening
7. All the Devils are Here: How Shakespeare Invented the Villain
6. Dark Noon
5. Illinoise
4. Enemy of the People
3. Here are the Blueberries
2. Patriots
AND MY FAVORITE PLAY OF 2024
