Bluebarn Theatre ended a highly successful run of Paula Vogel's INDECENT yesterday in Omaha. The play relates the controversial production of Sholem Asch's play 'God of Vengeance' on Broadway in 1923. The cast of the original Broadway production was arrested on the grounds of obscenity. Bluebarn with its cast and crew magnificently turned out one of the most beautifully produced plays in Omaha.

Consider the inconceivable.

Come to Omaha Community Playhouse's ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS prepared to die. Because you may die laughing at this all out wacky play by British playwright Richard Bean.

THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT TIME at Nebraska Wesleyan University Theatre is a fascinating production that I would go see again.

If you have not heard of SOMETHING ROTTEN! the musical, you soon will. If you have not seen SOMETHING ROTTEN!, you soon should! This crazy, hilarious musical farce is coming to the Lied Center for Performing Arts in Lincoln, Nebraska on April 26 and 27. If laughter is good medicine, this is my prescription for everything that ails you.

Check out our list of some of the top venues to check out when visiting Omaha below!

On opening night at the Orpheum COME FROM AWAY received the loudest, most exuberant cheers I have ever heard.

'I don't know when I've ever laughed and cried at the same time for an hour and forty minutes.'

INDECENT is a more than decent as good theatre. I'd see it again if only for the beauty of the production. Performances run through April 14th with tickets available at http://bluebarn.org/tickets/ or by calling 402-345-1576.

Sandra Joseph, longest-running leading lady on Broadway, spent a decade as Christine Daae' in THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. She has gone on to be a keynote speaker/singer, and has authored the #1 international bestselling book on Amazon, 'Unmasking What Matters: 10 Life Lessons from 10 Years on Broadway.'

If you like movies like, 'You've Got Mail,' you will like this show. SHE LOVES ME is about as sweet as a parfumerie.

CLUE is one of the most confusing, crazy, wacky shows I've seen yet. Midland University Performing Arts delivered an evening of laughs with Jonathan Lynn's murder mystery based on the 1985 film of the same name. The film was based on the classic board game Clue, which originated in 1949 under the name 'Cluedo' by Englishman Anthony E. Pratt. CLUE was also adapted as a musical Off Broadway in 1996 by Peter DePietro. You just can't kill this thing.

ROCK OF AGES is back! And it's better than ever. One more night to catch this blast from the past at the Orpheum Theater is Almost Paradise.

Sometimes a story leaves you disappointed. Or disillusioned. So you take a second look. You read the novella. You watch the film. You return to the Omaha Community Playhouse for another performance of THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY. And you see it with fresh eyes and a new perspective.

Jonathan Larson's Tony Award-winning groundbreaking musical, RENT, rocks stages across America in its 20th Anniversary touring production. It is currently playing at the Lied Center for Performing Arts in Lincoln, Nebraska. Forget regret. This is a show you must see.

For those of you who have never been to a production by The Florentine Players, you are in for a treat. It's small town dinner theater. The stage is located at the front of a large space filled with long tables in the Florence City Hall off State Street. At the back of the room is a canteen where you can buy popcorn, cookies, or nachos and a variety of other things. There is a beverage bar in the hallway. It's cozy. It's neighborly. And that's what makes this production of MAKING GOD LAUGH so great.

The Florentine Players have come up with a gem. MAKING GOD LAUGH by Sean Grennan plays FEB 22 and FEB 23 at 7:00 pm, and again on Sunday, FEB 24 at 2:00 pm. Thirty years of a family's life covered in three acts with all their flaws and imperfection will make you laugh until the tears take over. Tickets are available by calling 531-600-8634 or sending email to info@florencetheater.org.
