'Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” is undeniably a marathon, but in the hands of Backyard Renaissance, the journey rarely loses its grip.

There are few phrases in literature more quietly unhinged than “I would prefer not to.” And in Fiasco Theatre’s ' Bartleby, now playing at The Old Globe through March 22, that polite little sentence lands like a stick of dynamite in an otherwise well-oiled office machine.

Interview with Charlie Barnett, currently playing George in HEDDA GABLER at The Old Globe through March 22nd.

“Somewhere Over the Border,” now playing at Cygnet Theatre through March 15, wraps that hope in music, metaphor, and a road-trip structure in a production that is charming and colorful on its surface, but anchored by performances strong enough to carry its deeper weight.

At its best, “The Recipe” at La Jolla Playhouse is as warm and inviting as a kitchen in winter: fragrant with possibility, anchored by love, and anchored even more firmly by two utterly charming leads.

“Hedda Gabler” by Henrik Ibsen, now given a taut new version by Erin Cressida Wilson and directed with precision by Barry Edelstein at The Old Globe, stars Katie Holmes in the title role through March 15th.

Interview with Producing Artistic Director, performer, and director Marti Gobel about OnWord Theatre’s second season with 'Red Light Winter' by Adam Rapp.

Interview with playwright, performer, and Riot Productions co-founder Sarah Alida LeClair to talk about 'Audition Sides,” a razor-sharp short play about two actors trapped together in an uncomfortably romantic callback that refuses to end.

“SIX” feels like a New Year’s resolution set to a killer beat: ditch the old hierarchies, turn up the volume, and let the queens run the show. All hail, indeed.

Think of it not as a “Best of” but as a yearbook of some of the San Diego shows that lingered with me long beyond closing in 2025

Interview with 5-time Grinch, Andrew Polec, about slipping back into Grinch-mode, backstage Whoville traditions, audience antics, and the fan mail (and fan art)!

Cygnet Theatre’s “A Magical Holiday: Christmas at The Joan” is precisely what its title promises: a bright, polished, joy-forward holiday revue that knows its job is to lift spirits, sparkle confidently, and send you back into December humming. 

New Village Arts’ production of 'Rent' understands the heart of the piece, even if some of the sharpest edges are softened.

Interview with Erica Marie Weisz about her new one-woman show “Mistletoe Melodies with Erica Marie!” is a brand-new, stripped-down holiday gem—just Erica, a piano, and a sleigh-full of warmth.
