Review: SEX TIPS FOR STRAIGHT WOMEN FROM A GAY MAN at Bus Stop Productions
by Stan Jenson - Apr 22, 2023

The brand-new production company, Bus-Stop Productions, invited me to a sneak preview a couple of months ago.  I loved the show and especially the performers who had been cast in Hollywood and seemed to outshine many in our local talent pool.  The show ran for several very successful months, sometimes selling out two performances per evening.  They recently decided to add more performances for the month of May but two of the original performers were not available so the producers reached out to some local actors and my fears arose. My fears were proven wrong in a big, big way!

BWW Review: Brilliant OKLAHOMA! at the Providence Performing Arts Center
by Erica Cataldi-Roberts - Mar 24, 2022

Warning: this is not your traditional version of OKLAHOMA!, and good riddance. Without changing a word of the book or lyrics, director Daniel Fish has created a revival of the 1943 musical that highlights different aspects of the material simply by changing the tone in which scenes are presented. The story has always been one of a community banding together against an outsider, but that aspect of the show is usually buried in favor of the sunnier, romantic elements of the plot. Not so this time. While the show loses some of its oomph by no longer being presented in the round, as it was during its run on Broadway at the Circle in the Square Theatre, there is still plenty to like even when presented in a traditional space like the Providence Performing Arts Center’s.
