Review: COMPANY at Blumenthal Performing Arts
by Perry Tannenbaum - November 27, 2023
Injecting diversity, switching genders pell-mell, and even gifting us with a gay couple, Marianne Elliott's overhaul of Stephen Sondheim's COMPANY isn't more illuminating or revelatory than the 1970 original. But the horseplay and the gay wedding-day shenanigans are wildly entertaining - and the superb score still transcends the George Furth book.

Review: THE INTRICACY OF THE LEHMAN TRILOGY at Three Bone Theatre
by Vickie Evans - November 21, 2023
The acquisition of knowledge is important to me. Before this production, I knew nothing about The Lehman Brothers and their capitalistic pursuit.

Review: SPEAKEASY TAKES A 'SOULFUL RIDE' at Blumenthal Performing Arts Center's Booth Playhouse
by Vickie Evans - November 15, 2023

by Vickie Evans - October 10, 2023
Mike Wiley, The Playwright, cleverly foretold the story of the Montgomery Bus Boycott by randomly choosing audience members to portray historic African American heroes. It was entertaining, but not as full-scale and visual as the productions I am accustomed to.
