What did our critic think of THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES at Porthouse? It’s summer, a time of year in Northeastern Ohio for escapist activities.  This is the only logical reason that Porthouse would pick a show like Roger Bean’s jukebox musical THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES.

The clash of cultures –between West and East—is portrayed with poetic and musical flourish in Signature Theatre’s production of Stephen Sondheim’s rarefied and insightful Pacific Overtures.

What did our critic think of KIM'S CONVENIENCE at TheatreSquared? The coolest places to hang in Fayetteville is definitely Dickson Street. It has George's Majestic Lounge, which hosts so many awesome bands, Walton Arts Center, which brings in national touring companies, and my favorite- TheatreSquared, which has KIM'S CONVENIENCE showing through Sunday, Feb. 26. Written by Ins Choi and directed by Nelson Eusebio, this comedy definitely brings the laughs but also tugs at your heart with the realness of family expectations and desires. This performance brings out honest emotions and is worth seeing again!
