Review: LEA SALONGA: STAGE, SCREEN, & EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN at The Music Center At Strathmore


by David Friscic - December 11, 2025

Before Lea Salonga stepped out on the stage of the Strathmore this past Saturday evening, I could feel the anticipation building. Soon, a very savvy orchestra assembled and lightly “tuned up” as the audience awaited the entrance of Lea Salonga, --stage, screen, recording and concert performer par ex...

Review: KENREX, The Other Palace

The Lion King holds a deep residency in so many hearts, having loved the movie from a very early ag...

Review: THE BIG FAT CHRISTMAS SHOW at El Portal Theatre


by Amanda Callas - December 10, 2025

Standout moments include “Lonely Jew”  by a brilliant Rena Strober, which made the entire evening for me.  This hilarious and wildly irreverent ode to the holiday season includes Strober belting “Oy Vey Maria” and pulling missing Hanukkah candles out of her lady bits to add to her menorah.  I could ...

Review: PARADE at Ground Floor Theatre
