BWW Reviews: 'Bari-Hunk' NATHAN GUNN Charms in O.C. Cabaret
by Michael L. Quintos - March 27, 2011
I can't think of a better finale to Segerstrom Center for the Arts' 2010-2011 Cabaret Series season than the impressive Opera baritone hunk Nathan Gunn, whose 4-night O.C. debut set continues in Costa Mesa through this Sunday, March 27. But make no mistake-the man is more than just a handsome face. With a brilliant talent and an affable charm that far outstretched the intimacy of the Center's Samueli Theater, Gunn provided the O.C. with a wonderful last shot of testosterone to a terrific Broadway Diva-heavy season.

BWW Reviews: SCR's 'THE WEIR' Regales With Spooks & Shots
by Michael L. Quintos - March 25, 2011
What is a weir? It usually serves as a liquid fence between the calm, but deeper areas of a river and the more tumultuous surfaces it overflows to below. Without it, rivers will crest with unpredictability and the danger of flooding threatens the villages that line them. Thus dictates the symbolic title of THE WEIR, Irish playwright Conor McPherson's moody, chills-inducing stage drama filled with somber, spooky and alternately bittersweet stories, now enjoying a thought-provoking revival production at South Coast Repertory through April 3.
