Review: South Coast Repertory Presents A Revamped INTO THE WOODS
To celebrate the musical's 40th anniversary, South Coast Reportory recreates INTO THE WOODS with a decisively different approach, one that both entices and, at times, triggers an uneasy vibe (at first) that seems to have permeated out from the show's darker second half. Admittedly, something felt of…
Review: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS Delights at La Mirada Theatre
The brand new McCoy Rigby Entertainment production of the cheeky, macabre classic musical LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS—now on stage through October 11, 2026 at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts—is quite possibly the most eye-popping, delightfully entertaining iteration of the stage show yo…
Review: Krysta Rodriguez Makes OC Cabaret Debut at Segerstrom Center

Review: World Premiere Musical WILD CHILD Debuts at Laguna Playhouse

Review: OC's Segerstrom Center Welcomes HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD
In the fantastical, visually-enchanting stage play HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD—the theatrical continuation of J.K. Rowling's beloved magical saga—the idea of revisiting the past is embraced as its central theme, which in turn shifts the focus away from the mischievous school adventures tha…
Review: JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT at Musical Theatre West

Review: ANASTASIA - THE MUSICAL Enchants at La Mirada Theatre
I'll say this now: this Summer's most beguiling, most enchanting theatrical surprise is perhaps the brand new, gorgeously opulent regional production of ANASTASIA - THE MUSICAL, now on stage at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts through June 20, 2026. A visual stunner punctuated by remark…
Review: OC's Segerstrom Center Welcomes New Tour of THE SOUND OF MUSIC
You may ask yourself—is seeing a touring stage production of the globally and generationally ubiquitous 1959 musical THE SOUND OF MUSIC still worth experiencing live on stage in 2026? While the stage musical in its current touring form certainly doesn't offer anything revolutionary or new to the s…
Review: Defying Gravity - An Evening with Stephen Schwartz Flies to the Irvine Barclay
It's a very rare treat—particularly all the way here in Orange County, California—to hear Broadway songs and the stories behind them performed directly by the legendary composer himself, even for just a one-night-only event. But that is exactly the gift bestowed upon a rapt audience recently whe…
