Review: THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES at Porthouse
by Roy Berko - July 05, 2023
What did our critic think of THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES at Porthouse? It’s summer, a time of year in Northeastern Ohio for escapist activities. This is the only logical reason that Porthouse would pick a show like Roger Bean’s jukebox musical THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES.

Review: WALKING TO BUCHENWALD at Convergence-continuum
by Roy Berko - June 05, 2023
What did our critic think of WALKING TO BUCHENWALD at Convergence-continuum? At the start of the opening night of BUCKENWALD, it appeared that no matter the quality of the script the audience was in for a rough night. Lighting guffaws, a confusing scene with actors speaking directly to the audience, but talking to other actors seemingly miles apart, with no visual means of the messages being conveyed. Not a healthy beginning.
