The Queen of the Nile is having a major moment. Ask Charles Busch, author and star of the play, "Cleopatra," now in a sold-out run at Theater for the New City though April 17. "Cleopatra seems to be reinvented every decade or so" in pop culture, says Busch, who's famous for his stylish and hilarious takes on Hollywood icons and heroines. Cleopatra is celebrated in a lavish number in Cirque du Soleil's Broadway production, "Paramour," launching April 16 at the Lyric. The Egyptian empress was name-checked on "Empire" in a story thread involving a new Antony and Cleopatra clothing line. Need more? Just asp! A new screenwriter has reportedly been hired for the Angelina Jolie film based on Stacy Schiff's vivid bio "Cleopatra: A Life." And, finally, the Lumineers' new album is called, what else, "Cleopatra." Following the interview with Busch, listen in to hear the title song.

Is there a “Doctor” in the house? David Tennant, of “Doctor Who” fame, stars in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s “Richard II,” now at Brooklyn Academy of Music. The royal drama is part of the RSC four-play “King and Country” cycle that includes “Henry IV, Parts I and II” and “Henry V.” The series runs through May 1. It arrives fresh from London, where Tennant’s stirring performance and long locks turned heads. “Why should’t Richard have long hair? He believes he is divinely ordained to be king,” Tennant says. “He doesn’t conform. He is neither man nor woman — something else, something greater, divine.” Listen in for more from Tennant about “Richard II” and his “Jessica Jones” supervillain Kilgrave. Also on the podcast: Show Biz After Hours, a theater talk show taped live at Birdland. Host Frank DiLella and his April 3 guests Andy Karl and Orfeh talk about show biz.

Jazz Age star Florence Mills has been called “the Beyonce of that time.” Gertrude Saunders, her peer, was Bessie Smith’s husband’s mistress, which led to a public brawl. Actress Adrienne Warren plays both stars in “Shuffle Along, Or, the Making of the Musical Sensation of 1921 and All That Followed,” which begins previews on Tuesday at the Music Box. The show re-creates that pioneering all-black Jazz Age revue. It also goes backstage to imagine what went on behind the scenes among the creators and cast. Warren, previously on Broadway in “Bring It On,” talks about creating Saunders and Mills, a process that begins, she says, “with posture.” And listen in to hear Saunders warble the period tune, “I’m Craving for That Kind of Love.” Follow Joe here: @TheJoeDShow Produced by: Joe Dziemianowicz Edited by: Frank Posillico Follow Joe on Twitter and get more from the Daily News on Facebook , YouTube and Tumblr…

“ White Rabbit Red Rabbit ” is its own Off-Broadway species. For this solo play by Iranian writer Nassim Soleimanpour, there’s no rehearsal, director or set. The performer gets the script as he or she steps on stage. Scary? You bet. Irresistible? Yes. Ask producers Tom Kirdahy and Devlin Elliott, of Maberry Theatricals, who tell how they discovered the show and were determined to bring it to New York. The show runs on Monday night at the Westside Theatre. Up first, Nathan Lane on March 7. He’ll be followed by Whoopi Goldberg, Patrick Wilson and Brian Dennehy are on-board. Waiting in the wings for a shot are George Takei and Donna Murphy. How often would those two go up for the same part? At a moment of #OscarsSoWhite, along comes this age-, gender-, race-defying production. Hello, #RabbitSoDiverse.

New York actor and author Colman Domingo has a lot on this plate. His new play “Dot,” about family grappling with Alzheimer’s, is at the Vineyard.

Dominic West’s plummy voice is its own theatrical special effect. You don’t have to trek to London to get a taste of West and Janet McTeer acting up as manipulative former lovers in “Les Liaisons Dangereuses.” You can hear them in character as Vicomte de Valmont and Marquise de Merteuil, along with the rest of the Donmar Warehouse cast, in an audibook drawn from the epistolary novel the play is based on. Rebecca Fenton, program editor for the U.K.-based Auible Originals, discusses its “Dangerous Liaisons” release and other theater-related projects.

Stephen Karam’s family drama “The Humans” was supposed to start previews on Saturday, but got hijacked by winter storm Jonas. “It’s an understatement to say that it was a bit of a crazy event to have your Broadway debut completely snowed out,” he says. But the play is now in previews and he’s taking it in stride. Karam, author of “Speech & Debate,” and “Sons of the Prophet,” talks about his inspirations for “The Humans,” which follows a family through ups and downs on Thanksgiving. Turns out that living in a basement apartment without natural light actually played a part for the show now in previews at the Helen Hayes.

What’s it like working with your spouse? For daredevils Jonathan and Katy Goodwin of “The Illusionists: Live on Broadway,” which will be featured in an NBC special on Dec. 9, it’s about shooting sharp pointy arrows in each other’s direction. For Megan McGinnis and Adam Halpin, married costars of the musical “Daddy Long Legs” running Off-Broadway and live-streaming for free on Dec. 10, it’s about aiming for harmony. We talk about the perils and pluses of bringing work home and vice versa.
