Mind’s Eye Theatre Company will present Evil Dead the Musical. Evil Dead the Musical combines the elements of The Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 for one of the baudiest, funniest, and bloodiest theatrical experiences of all time.

I’m happy to report that Water for Elephants has come out swinging - Not since the 2013 revival of Pippin has there been so much acrobatic work onstage at Whitney Hall!  Based on the novel and film of the same name, this brand new circus-centric musical is now embarking on its national tour, with early stops here in Louisville.

Last night’s performance of The Notebook at the Arnoff Center for the Arts in Cincinatti felt like an evening I spent feeling the gambit of emotions. And that lingered long after I left the theatre.

Time Slip Theatre, a 501(c)(3) theatre company most known for its productions of 'The Rocky Horror Show,' has announced a new three-part series of shows, kicking off this month with the thriller 'Who Invited Them.'

In 2017, Come From Away quickly took Broadway and theatre lovers by storm. After its Broadway run and two successful national tours, the rights have finally become available, and it’s unsurprising that Derby Dinner Playhouse would be the venue to take on its return to the Louisville/Southern Indiana area.

MJ the Musical star Jordan Marcus took time to answer a few questions just for BroadwayWorld. The show is currently playing through Sunday May 11th in Nashville, and will continue to a city near you in it's multi-year national tour.

MAMA, I'M A BIG GIRL NOW! is running May 7th at 7:30p at the Lexington Opera House. Read our interview with one of the show's stars, Tony Award-nominee Laura Bell Bundy!

Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet might be the most well-known story ever. It is taught in schools across the globe, constantly performed, and countless adaptations have made the story of these famous star-crossed lovers a truly timeless and valuable piece of media.

Peter Pan is a classic story I venture to think most people know: the story of three siblings whisked off to Neverland by a boy who won’t grow up, where they have adventures and fight pirates. The Disney version is the most famous, but the stage version has been performed for decades. A new national tour embarked last year and has finally come to Louisville. 

What did our critic think of URINETOWN at Derby Dinner Playhouse? What is Urinetown? For the purposes of this review, I’m going to be referring to the musical, not the place. Urinetown premiered on Broadway in 2001 and was an early, popular example of meta-satire in the Broadway musical landscape. In the story, society has begun to run out of water, which means the once leisurely activity of relieving one’s self is no longer free. Private bathrooms are outlawed, and everyone has to pay to take care of their business.

What did our critic think of KIMBERLY AKIMBO at Aronoff Center?

Life of Pi was originally a novel by Yann Martel released in 2001, where our main character Piscine Molitor 'Pi' Patel and his family leave India to immigrate to Canada. While on the journey, there’s a shipwreck leaving Pi alone on a lifeboat with only a dangerous Bengal tiger named Richard Parker to keep him company. In 2012, the book was adapted into an Oscar winning film directed by Ang Lee.

What did our critic think of COME FROM AWAY at Broadway Across America?

It’s been over 9 years since Mamma Mia played it’s final performance on Broadway. The show was a Broadway mainstay for nearly 15 years before closing in 2015, and no production since has truly been able to capture the pure joy of what makes the show so great. At the height of its success, it spawned a star studded and successful film adaptation; and post closure, a film sequel. After the show’s broadway closure, some non-equity tours did their best, but something felt off. I’m beyond overjoyed to report that the shows current iteration (billed as the 25th anniversary tour), is nothing short of delightful and miraculous merriment.
