by Sabrina Wallace · June 17, 2026

Austin Playhouse’s Seared, directed by Lara Toner Haddock, serves up a grounded, well-paced production with strong ensemble work and a working kitchen that adds real texture. The staging feels alive, even when Theresa Rebeck’s script leans preachy and predictable.…

Review: JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR at Georgetown Palace Theatre

Review: JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR at Georgetown Palace Theatre

Review: WAKEY, WAKEY. at Hyde Park Theatre
