Spectacular dancing, heartfelt story, brilliant actors, classic songs.... The iconic film, DIRTY DANCING had all the makings to translate seamlessly onto the stage. However, unfortunately, it failed to deliver on all accounts. Written and conceived by Eleanor Bergstein, who has little to no previous stage experience, DIRTY DANCING is a lackluster and disappointing version of the far superior original. Perhaps it would've been best to leave Baby in the corner.

When a small Ohio theatre company continues to produce stars such as Josh Radnor, Steven Boyer, AJ Shively, Jessica Grove and more, it's no coincidence that they are something truly special. Not surprisingly, then, Columbus Children's Theatre has once again raised the bar in their spring musical, CATS, with their innovative vision and talent, which is second to none.

The 2016 Taste of Dine Originals was held at the gorgeous Franklin Park Conservatory for the first time this year, offering an exquisite backdrop for some of Columbus's finest locally owned, independent restaurants, wineries, breweries, and more. Also a first was a sold-out crowd, who filled the entirety of the facility without feeling overcrowded.
