Review: THE BOOK OF MORMON at Ohio Theatre
There is no parental rating system for musicals, but after watching THE BOOK OF MORMON, some might believe there should be.
Review: CONTEMPORARY THEATRE OF OHIO'S BIG FISH at Riffe Center Studio One
At its heart, BIG FISH is a story about storytelling.
BWW Review: MJ the Musical - A Thrilling Tribute to the Man and the Music
While the two Presidential candidates were squaring off on opening night to determine the future of the United States, there is no debate that Michael Jackson will forever remain the King of Pop.
Review: WALLER'S LIFE IS ONLY IN PERIPHERY IN AIN'T MISBEHAVIN'
The cast adjusts the mood of the show quickly.
Review: WILD THINGS at Shadowbox Live
While not all the sketches are home runs, most offer a solid chuckle to nearly everyone.
Review: AMERICAN IDIOT at Abbey Theater Of Dublin
What is refreshing about AMERICAN IDIOT is since it’s a pre-professional project, the entire cast is in the 14-19 age range.
Review: LEGALLY BLONDE at Garden Theater
SNS elevates its presentation with another stellar cast, tight choreography and several minute details and musical director Jonathan Collura helps the cast deliver the show’s snappy, tightly fashioned songs with power.
Review: BEN PLATT AND BRANDY CLARK at Mershon Auditorium
What did our critic think of BEN PLATT AND BRANDY CLARK at Mershon Auditorium?
Review: EVOLUTIONARIES at Shadowbox Live
Under the direction of Julie Klein, the theater troupe weaves together the divergent catalogue of the two icons with a variety of singers and styles, multimedia presentations, and the storytelling of Michelle Daniels.
Review: THE LION KING at Ohio Theatre
While at times THE LION KING seems like a note for note repetition of the movie, what pushes the musical into new territory is the costume design, a stellar group of actors, and of course, an empowering soundtrack.
Review: THE TEMPTATIONS AND THE FOUR TOPS at McCoy Center For The Arts
Two questions almost immediately sprang up when people were told that the Temptations and the Four Tops were performing June 11 at the Jeanne B.
Review: JOE JACKSON at At Davidson Theatre
What did our critic think of JOE JACKSON at At Davidson Theatre?
Review: A WALK IN THE WOODS at The Abbey Theater
What did our critic think of A WALK IN THE WOODS at The Abbey Theater? Bishara’s non-nonsense Honeywell verbally spars with Holliday’s frivolous Botvinnik.
Review: HAIR: THE AMERICAN TRIBAL LOVE-ROCK MUSICAL at Garden Theatre
HAIR is not your typical linear, point A to point B musical.
BWW Review: TINA: THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL - Simply the Best in Columbus
TINA: The Tina Turner Musical came blazing in like a bolt of lightning with thunderous applause on opening night at the Ohio Theatre, just as most of our state was under severe tornado warnings.
Review: TINA: THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL at Ohio Theatre
This musical would flounder without a dynamic leading woman.
Review: JON BATISTE at Southern Theatre
The first night Batiste went from performing solo, to playing with a jazz trio to playing with a 41-piece orchestra in a two-hour span.
Review: THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME at Lincoln Theatre
Brilliant acting mixed in with a powder keg of singing, dancing, and orchestration stuns its audience.
Review: RIDE THE CYCLONE at The Contemporary Theatre Of Ohio
RIDE THE CYCLONE is more like an eccentric Tim Burton film than a John Hughes hug fest.
Review: BEHIND CLOSED DOORS at Shadowbox Live
The Shadowbox motto is to do to sketch comedy what Second City does for improv.
Review: CLUE at Ohio Theatre
The script is filled with pratfalls, sight gags, puns and “Dad jokes,” but what makes this play work is the backstory and the personality given to each character and each role contributes something to the plot.
Review: Lending an ear to VAN GOGH'S IN THE ATTIC at Abbey Theater In Dublin
Cooney’s script is much like a van Gogh painting.
