BWW Review: THE COMEDY OF ERRORS at The Civic Plaza
William Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors, one of the playwright's earlier plays, involves an intricate plot that revolves around multiple instances of mistaken identities, slapstick humor, and the word play that Shakespeare is so well-known for.
BWW Review: THE ICEMAN COMETH, a Symphony of Sadness (and Kindness), at The Vortex
Eugene O'Neill's The Iceman Cometh--the portrayal of a dysfunctional bunch of rock-bottom alcoholic barflies and the salesman who tries to 'save' them from their futile pipe dreams: This show is an extraordinary symphony--nineteen excellent actors all piping in and out, rising and falling collective

BWW Review: THE GAZA MONOLOGUES Moves (and Moves With) the Audience at Peñasco Theater
In the mountain village of Peñasco, New Mexico, to an audience of youth and adults where everyone seemed to know each other, four actors (two of them, teenagers) performed powerfully a style of theater that I had never seen before-yet which seemed so natural, an organic expression of that unique co

The Festival's primary purpose: to actualize the necessary positive response to a tragic global epidemic of hopelessness.

Dancing Earth takes contemporary dance a step further-because they root within their immemorial indigenous identity.
BWW Review: PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT at National Hispanic Cultural Center Journal Theater
It takes guts to do a show like Priscilla Queen of the Desert, a drag-queen pop musical based on a popular Oscar winning movie-in a venue like the National Hispanic Cultural Center's grand and elegant Journal Theater.
BWW Review: THE WHITEHEADED BOY is Spoiled at The Adobe
The Whiteheaded Boy drags along the bottom of the Adobe stage with poor pace and too many clumsy performances.

The Cell, where Duke City Repertory is performing this show, is just two blocks from the Central nightclub strip full of young people.
BWW Review: IMMORTAL LONGINGS is theater geeks and lay(wo)men alike at The Vortex
As a theater geek, I'm predisposed to enjoy Immortal Longings, the Vortex' latest production, which brings a pantheon-ensemble of Shakespeare's greatest female characters from his greatest plays onto a single stage, to perform their greatest scenes.

A family mourns the recent death of their beloved sister/daughter/wife/mother (and famous actress), Kathy.

The women of Las Meganenas, a local troupe of storytellers, are showing their latest piece at the VSA North Fourth Arts Center: 'The Chupacabra Cantina,' a galvanizing expose on the imbalanced global structures of power that, like the vampiric Chupacabra of Mexican and Hispanic legend, suck the lif
