Theater Week

	by Anthony Chase
	Bada Bing! Bada Boom!
	Paul Maisano came up with the idea of Bada Bing! Bada Boom!, the musical opening at MusicalFare this week, when his brother gave their dad a CD compilation of Italian-American pop hits of the 1950s and 1960s.
	Blackbird
	Scottish playwright David Harrower’s two-character play, Blackbird, now on stage at the New Phoenix Theatre, attracted a ton of attention in 2006-2007. The London production stole the Olivier award for that year, besting such high profile rivals as Conor McPherson’s The Seafarer, Tom Stoppard’s Rock ’n’ Roll, and Peter Morgan’s Frost/Nixon.
