Looks like my box of Valentines chocolates was delivered to On the Boards this year. Last evening's exciting opening night performance of "Break a Heart" had all of the variety and surprises of that holiday heart shaped standby. I got the impression right off the bat that this was not the usual high brow OtB fare. The lobby was filled with volunteers, patrons and OtB staff all decked out in reds and pinks and golds.

If you're kicking yourself for missing recent killer performances at On the Boards, such as Reggie Watts & Tommy Smith's Transition (laugh-out-loud funny and true), or Diana Szeinblum's Alaska (stunning athleticism and emotion), or Allen Johnson's Another You (oh-my-god brutally good), well, you should still kick yourself, actually, because, where the hell have you been?
