A critically injured novelist. His “number one fan” coming to his aid. At first, she is a godsend. But when fandom turns into obsession, events take a darker turn. The play may be called Misery, but at the Springer Opera House, the show is a pleasure. Read the review. ...

What did our critic think of A RAISIN IN THE SUN at Theatrical Outfit?...

Featuring golden oldies like “Sherry,” “Walk Like a Man,” and “Oh, What a Night,” Jersey Boys might look like a vehicle for boomer nostalgia. But at the Springer Opera House, it is so much more than that. The stellar performances and dynamic directing make Jersey Boys a moving show that ...
