THEATER

Thursday 1/16

CRAZY FOR YOU

AN UNEXPECTED MAN
   This existential romance crafted by Yasmina Reza exposes the inner thoughts of two unacquainted French intellects - a popular author and his female fan - as the two bat their eyes at each other on a cross country train from Paris to Frankfurt.
