The piece of cake you cut into did not have a pastel center.
In just a matter of days, Halloween 2023 will be a thing of the past. Until that time, there are still plenty of horror movies to watch to put you in the mood to be sufficiently scared, as well as amused. In keeping with the currently popular horror comedy trend, consider queer filmmaker Nahnatchka Khan’s “Totally Killer” (Amazon Studios).
The Maltz Jupiter Theatre in north Palm Beach County is offering audiences classics of every genre, starting with Agatha Christie’s quintessential whodunnit, “Murder on the Orient Express,” Oct. 29 – Nov. 12. All aboard the exotic and mysterious Orient Express as it departs with a train full of larger-than-life suspects, each one with a motive and an alibi. This clever adaptation boasts all the glamour, intrigue and suspense with a healthy dose of humor to quicken the pace.
Pigs Do Fly Productions at Empire Stage in Fort Lauderdale showcases mature actors and speak to the issues of older audiences.
Halloween will be here before you know it. Fortunately, we have movies such as “My Animal” (Paramount) to put us in the (f)right mood. While there are some vague elements such as the time period (could be any time between the 1990s and present day) and the location (some of the accents scream New England), there’s nothing ambiguous about the way it equates queerness with supernatural otherness.
Two plays written by two of Broadway’s greatest playwrights have recently opened, both dealing with AIDS. Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s “Into the Woods” was seen as an allegory for the AIDS crisis when it debuted in 1987. Terrance McNally’s “Love! Valour! Compassion!”, which debuted on Broadway in 1994 deals with AIDS head-on as two of the characters battle the disease.
