The latest reviews and critic recommendations from Atlanta.
What did our critic think of ENGLISH at The Alliance? Winner of the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and praised by New York Theater Guide as 'a lively comedy and a profound exploration of the essence of communication and understanding,' ENGLISH by Sanaz Toossi, kicks off Alliance Theatre's 2023/24 sea
What did our critic think of THE PROS & CONS OF KILLING YOUR CULT LEADER at The Weird Sisters Theatre Project? PROS & CONS by Twiggs is a quick-witted and charming show.
What did our critic think of JESUS HOPPED THE 'A' TRAIN at Actor's Express? JESUS HOPPED at Actor’s Express is an expertly executed, highly spiritual experience that explores some of the “ugliest” truths a person can have with respect and curiosity.
What did our critic think of CATS IS A “MEMORY” YOU WON’T FORGET at City Springs Theatre Company?
What did our critic think of PRAYER FOR THE FRENCH REPUBLIC at Actor's Express? There are some questions we ask because we want to, and there are others we ask because we have to.
What did our critic think of TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS at Theatrical Outfit? If you're hoping to see something real, honest, and true then you should see TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS at Theatrical Outfit.
What did our critic think of SPAMALOT at City Springs Theatre? Full of lewd jokes, flashy numbers, and a multitude of marvelous voices, SPAMALOT is a riotously good time.
What did our critic think of THE MANY WONDROUS REALITIES OF JASMINE STARR-KIDD at The Alliance Theatre? With unbeatable tech, fun performances, and a frivolous story, WONDROUS REALITIES is a swift and lighthearted experience.
What did our critic think of OH, TO BE PURE AGAIN at Actor's Express? With strong performances, stellar tech, and a startling poignant story, OH, TO BE PURE AGAIN feels like a much-needed baptism in healing.
What did our critic think of MUFARO’S BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS: AN AFRICAN TALE at Synchronicity Theatre? It is an incredible tale told with palpable passion, memorable music, and deep caring that extends beyond the story.
The Alliance Theatre's annual production of the Charles Dickens classic, A CHRISTMAS CAROL adapted by David H.
The horror of this story is in all of the things that you don’t see, and all of the unspeakable scenarios that may emerge from the unchecked imagination.
What did our critic think of IN THE HEIGHTS at City Springs Theatre?
Stage Door Theatre's production of Ordinary Days may hit some early stumbles, but the final product rings with enough emotional truth to leave the audience smiling and contemplating the simple beauties in their own lives.
What did our critic think of EVERYBODY at The Alliance?Branden Jacobs-Jenkins's EVERYBODY is a beautiful reminder that in the end, even with your faculties about you, your deeds and your love are all that go with you to the grave—that is, if you can manage to accept them.
Candrice Jones has penned a deeply personal play, one in which the social pressure to succeed and to rise above one’s circumstances runs counter to the more primal desire to be a part of something larger than oneself.
What did our critic think of THE OUTRAGE MACHINE BY DANIEL CARTER BROWN at West End Performing Arts Center?
What did our critic think of “SOMETHING’S COMING” FROM WEST SIDE STORY at City Springs Theatre Company?
Alliance Theatre’s season is coming to an end with TRADING PLACES, a world premiere musical.
The main draw of CABARET is the set, or more broadly, the atmosphere.
I attended the City Springs Theatre Conservatory’s Pre-Pro 2022 Senior/Elite Company Showcase this weekend with every intention of keeping my “supportive friend” hat on, and none of writing a review.
City Springs Theatre Company presents THE COLOR PURPLE Directed by Kamilah Long is based on Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel and the Warner Bros.
Dark black curtains close in around a tight stage – the audience sits together in one section facing three separate beds neatly spaced out and decorated thoughtfully to indicate three separate playing spaces.
Atlanta’s own Chase Peacock and Jessica De Maria have brought the story of the infamous 'Pretty Pants Bandit' Marie Baker to life in their world premiere musical, currently on stage with the Georgia Ensemble Theatre at the Roswell Cultural Arts Center.
Imagine, if you will, a small theatre tucked away in midtown Atlanta.
