I am honored to be invited to review the shows in and around the Boise metro area. I will and have traveled up to 3 hours away for any size theatre/performance. I only began doing the reviews August 31st, so a majority of the shows will be from my time as a reviewer.
I have acted once or twice here in Boise and thought I was getting a grasp on the "theatre scene" here. I was wrong; there is so much more happening here in Boise than I thought and I am loving it and happy to help spread the word about it!
