“Present Laughter” is not “The Man Who Came to Dinner,” even though both plays date back to 1939, which was quite a year for comedy. A new revival of the Noel Coward classic about a narcissistic stage actor named Garry Essendine opened Wednesday at the St. James Theatre, and at times it plays like the Kaufman and Hart comedy under Moritz von Stuelpnagel’s not always steady direction. At other times, it is veddy British, proper, and absolutely terrific — especially when Kevin Kline and Kate Burton are on stage, which, fortunately, is most of the time. Kline has always been...

If it weren’t for Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have had Liev Schreiber’s many celebrated contributions to stage and screen. “I owe everything to Shakespeare,” Schreiber told HitFix. “Shakespeare was my entrée into theater and my career in general. Had it not been for the time that I spent in England and George Wolfe at the Public Theater, I probably wouldn’t be an actor today.” Schreiber has performed in several Shakespeare productions by New York’s renown Public Theater, including Shakespeare in the Park, the buzzy run of plays that packs Central Park with Bardolaters every summer. He also took on the Bard on film alongside Ethan Hawke in the 2000 adaptation of Hamlet. Also among Schreiber’s extensive Shakespeare credits: the title role in the Public Theater’s 2006 Macbeth. Ten years later, Schreiber returned to the Scottish king for HitFix’s video series celebrating 400 years of Shakespeare. Today,...
