Review: WATER FOR ELEPHANTS at Ohio Theatre - A Spectacle in Search of a Soul
by Christina Mancuso - June 10, 2026
Based on Sara Gruen’s beloved 1932 novel - and its 2011 film adaptation, WATER FOR ELEPHANTS is a technical triumph wrapped around a dramatically uneven musical. Directed by Tony Award nominee Jessica Stone (Kimberly Akimbo), with book by three-time Tony nominee Rick Elice (Jersey Boys, Peter an...

Review: BAT OUT OF HELL: THE MUSICAL at Palace Theatre
by Paul Batterson - April 21, 2026
That’s both the draw and the danger of Jim Steinman’s music. While it comes with a built-in 50-and-over audience, jukebox musicals run the danger of relying on nostalgia, being underperformed by its actors, and/or having a paper thin plot. BAT OUT OF HELL avoided two of those three pitfalls. As ...

Review: A‑Maize‑ing Fun: SHUCKED Pops with Heart and Humor at the Ohio Theatre
by Christina Mancuso - April 08, 2026
Originally conceived as an adaptation of the long‑running TV variety show Hee Haw, Shucked popped into the Ohio Theatre on Tuesday night packed with deliciously corny puns, ear-to-ear smiles, and rapid‑fire one‑liners. What begins as a wink‑and‑nod celebration of pun‑loving humor quickly...
