Review: A GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER at Austin Playhouse


by Sabrina Wallace - April 21, 2026

Austin Playhouse’s A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder, directed by Lara Toner Haddock, is a fast, witty farce about Monty Navarro and his murderous path to inheritance. The humor lands through timing and structure rather than weight or message. I’d almost forgotten how funny it is, and it�...

Review: MAMMA MIA! at Bass Concert Hall

by Sabrina Wallace - April 14, 2026

Review: THE FIRE RAISERS at The Hidden Room


by Sabrina Wallace - April 12, 2026

Review: MEN ON BOATS at City Theatre Austin

Review: HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH at ART At Ground Floor Theatre


by Sabrina Wallace - April 09, 2026

Review: WILD HORSES at Penfold Theatre

Review: PRIVATE LIVES at Bandwagon Arts


by Sabrina Wallace - March 07, 2026

Bandwagon Arts gives Noël Coward’s Private Lives a modern twist at Ground Floor Theatre. Ex-spouses Elyot and Amanda collide on neighboring honeymoon balconies, and chaos follows. Quick wit, messy romance, and socialites behaving badly keep this classic comedy humming....

Review: DEATHTRAP at The Wimberley Players


by Sabrina Wallace - March 03, 2026
