The nimble production of E. Y. Harburg’s 1951 musical “Flahooley” demonstrates how to entertain on a shoestring.

Theater for the New City Great article about Yip Harburg, author of FLAHOOLEY, now playing at TNC, in today's New York Times!

The lyrics of E. Y. “Yip” Harburg, currently featured in revivals of “Finian’s Rainbow” and “Flahooley,” still cast a dizzying spell.

Theater for the New City
nonviolent executions
Written & Performed by
steve ben israel
“Hilarious and moving. One of our great performers.” – The LA Weekly
nonviolent executions, steve ben israel’s one-man show, is his latest séance to contact the living. A series of short takes combining humor, poetry, stories of rare poignancy, and his virtuosi...c acting abilities, nonviolent executions is an evening of entertainment with extraordinary intelligence and heart.
Mr. israel started working as a comedian more than 50 years ago, then joined The Living Theatre and for many years toured this country, Europe, North Africa and Brazil as a leading actor in that ground-breaking group. More recently, he has performed extensively on the downtown scene, in such venues as The Kitchen, The Performing Garage, and The Nuyorican Poets Café, and has appeared in movies by Bertolucci, been a featured artist on recordings by Frederic Rzewski and Anthony Braxton, and has been a guest commentator on NPR’s “All Things Considered.” He is a recipient of a 2007 Obie Award.
In nonviolent executions, israel comes full circle, to inhabit the city of his waking dreams and nightmares to confront the beauty, the horror and the possibilities of “the island that creates the spice that gives much of the country its flavor.”
When he finds communality with an immigrant cab driver, a cashier at the phone company, or an old jazz hand, he touches something in us all. When he tells his audience that he doesn’t “like the way white people are portrayed in movies,” he is completely sincere. When he sings the cantorial “Ballad of Black, White, and Jew,” sadness and hope ride a North African musical motif from hidden grief to deliverance.
steve ben israel would present an audience’s most generous face to itself. If he pierces the slick armor masquerading as sense in our time with jolts of love and compassion, it is only his compulsion and our deep pleasure to be so subjected.
All Tickets $12
