Michael Urie at home, channeling Barbra Streisand: Your weekend quarantine must-watch

Live from his apartment, Michael Urie reprises his role in “Buyer & Cellar,” the comedy about a struggling actor who takes an unusual job at the Malibu estate of Barbra Streisand.

In reviewing Jonathan Tolins’ play when it came to the Mark Taper Forum in L.A. in 2014, Times theater critic Charles McNulty said the solo performance is an amusing commentary on Los Angeles and the plight of actors waiting for their big break. “Yes, it has its slow patches ... but it is redeemed by the emerging friendship that it poignantly depicts, thanks to a winning actor and a playwright who ultimately chooses sincerity over easy satire.”

You can catch it at 5 p.m. Sunday. It’s free; donations are accepted. broadway.com, facebook.com/Broadway and youtube.com
