REVIEW: Barrington Stage's 'Boeing Boeing' offers a flight you won't want to miss
Croissants, crepes, wine and a good farce have carried the French in good stead over the centuries. Even a mediocre French farce, when well directed and superbly acted will make up for a myriad of flaws in the script. Such is the case with Barrington Stage's production of “Boeing Boeing.” Written by playwright Marc Camoletti in 1960 and translated into English in 1962 by Beverly Cross is a funny, dated show about a rogue, Bernard, living in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower who is engaged to three women. He juggles his menagerie of ladies who all happen to be airline stewardesses all with different airlines based upon their flight schedules in and out of Paris. All is fine until it isn't and hilarity ensues.

DANCE REVIEW: Momix at the Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival
Moses Pendleton has been making dances and performance pieces for more than 50 years. He was very good at it when he started, coming out of Dartmouth College in 1971 as a co-founder of the dance company Pilobolus (pilobolus is a kind of fungi), and he has gotten better and better at it over the years. This week his company, Momix, is at Jacob’s Pillow, presenting an eclectic survey of the company’s work over the last 20 or more years. If you look closely at the 16 pieces on the program, you can arguably see some of the arc of Pendleton’s artistic vision. And, as his biography states, over the arc of that career, Pendleton’s artistic vision has focused on “illusionistic choreography.”
