Review: THE PRICE IS RIGHT LIVE at The Price Is Right Live Tour
This is the real deal! Audience members were called on stage. Real cash and prizes were awarded. Same music, same sound effects, same games. Hosted by “the host with the most’ Todd Newton, everyone involved had a great time. Newton has that smooth, buttery emcee demeanor while simultan...
Review: RAGTIME at Dutch Apple Dinner Theatre
Dutch Apples steps outside of their comfort zone with mostly favorable results. Ragtime is a challenging and thought-provoking piece, and any criticism is directed towards the script, not its talented cast and crew....
Review: CINDERELLA at Gamut Theatre's Young Acting Company
The play is immensely creative, combining comedic dialogue with emotional moments and the beautiful message that being kind and not judging others is more important than wealth, looks, and being proper. To see these young performers bringing a classic fairy tale to life with such joy and passion is ...

DreamWrights is performing “A Trip to the Moon” by Tracy Wells under the direction of Crystal Ganong from April 5th to April 14th. This vignette-style play will take you back to the summer of 1969 in America when everyone was talking about landing on the moon, Woodstock, and Vietnam. Each short ...

Review: PRIDE AND PREJUDICE at Gamut Theatre
The original “Pride and Prejudice” was written in 1813 and has sold over 20 million copies and inspired many adaptations in written form, television, or film. Kate Hamill offers a unique twist on the antics of the 5 daughters in the Bennent family. You will be laughing out loud at the physical c...

Review: ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD at Little Theatre Of Mechanicsburg

Review: 9 TO 5 at Fulton Theatre
What did our critic think of 9 TO 5 at Fulton Theatre? The Fulton brings the musical version of the feminist farce, 9 to 5 to the mainstage. Based on the 1980 film of the same name, the plot follows three secretaries and their struggles and triumphs against their sexist, narcissist of a boss. ...

Review: ROCK OF AGES at The Belmont Theatre
What did our critic think of ROCK OF AGES at The Belmont Theatre? Although a simple story line, Rock of Ages tells the familiar tale of chasing one's dreams and finding them just out of reach. Rocker Drew Boley (Alec Bashear) and wannabe actor Sherrie Christian (Lindy Keefe) follow their dreams all ...
Review: EQUUS at Fulton Theatre
Horses. They're powerful animals most often associated with freedom in metaphysical circles. For 17-year-old Alan Strang, however, horses symbolize so much more than that......
Review: CYMBELINE at The People's Shakespeare Project
Director Jeremiah Miller, and assistant director Justin Hopkins do a great job of maximizing the entire performance space and making the show quite immersive.

Review: THE PROM at Keystone Theatrics At The Playhouse At Allenberry
