Tired of taco takeout and Netflix? Well, too bad, suckers, we may as well be in Albuquerque today! Oops, we perhaps spoke too soon: erstwhile undergraduate dramatists will be excited to know that some good souls are reviving Eugene O’Neill’s knee-slapper Mourning Becomes Electra for a limited Off Broadway engagement, starring Jena Malone of Donnie Darko and Lili Taylor of Six Feet Under. Hey—it’s not as bleak as the one with the foghorn!
[Mourning Becomes Electra, the New Group at Theatre Row, 410 West 42nd Street, 7 p.m., 212-279-4200]
