March 31 served as opening night for the Richard Rodgers Theatre's latest offering, "Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo." Directed by Moisés Kaufman ("The Laramie Project"), the limited engagement plays on Broadway through July 3.

"Bengal Tiger" is an original dark comedy by Rajiv Joseph and arrives on the Main Stem by way of Los Angeles. Centered shortly after the 2003 American invasion of Iraq, the production focuses on two U.S. Marines, Kev (Brad Fleischer) and Tom (Glenn Davis), stationed by the cage of the titular Bengal tiger (Robin Williams) at the Baghdad Zoo.

Funnyman Robin Williams has announced the rescheduled dates for his Weapons of Self-Destruction comedy tour. The final portion of Williams' spring tour had been postponed so he could undergo emergency heart surgery.

The comedian is currently scheduled to perform a total of 29 nights during the outing. Tickets from the postponed shows will be honored on their respective rescheduled dates.

Comedian Robin Williams has postponed four performances of his one-man comedy show, "Weapons of Self-Destruction," due to illness. After experiencing shortness of breath, Williams is being evaluated by doctors, who are recommending a week of rest.

Williams was originally scheduled to perform the Florida-based shows at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood on March 4 and 5, at the UCF Arena in Orlando on March 6 and at the Sundome in Tampa on March 7.

We end this holiday week with the loss of an iconic Broadway voice. Actress and singer Eartha Kitt died at the age of 81 on December 25 after a battle with colon cancer. Over the course of her 60-year career, Kitt brought characters to life on the stage, silver screen and television, but she is best known for her holiday hit single "Santa Baby."
