BWW Reviews: Our Productions Theatre Company's ORDINARY DAYS has an Extraordinary Amount of Heart!
by Kyle West - March 31, 2015
ORDINARY DAYS may not be based on a famous book or movie; the score may not have any #1 radio hits; and the show may not be a mega-hit Broadway blockbuster…but this is exactly what makes the show so charming. Like the new theatre company producing the show, ORDINARY DAYS is small, but full of love and commitment - two important ingredients in creating art.

BWW Reviews: THE KING AND I at The Music Hall At Fair Park
by Kyle West - March 30, 2015
With the show's Broadway debut in 1951, followed by the 1956 Academy-Award-winning film adaption, Rodger's and Hammerstein's THE KING AND I has been captivating audiences for over 60 years. Yul Brenner, the most iconic and well-known of the actors who have played the King, not only starred in both stage and film incarnations of this classic musical, but he brought the show's national tour to the Music Hall at Fair Park in 1989, where the acclaimed musical is currently being revived by Dallas Summer Musicals. Though the current production's leader may lack Brenner's clout and charisma, this locally produced musical provides a high-quality, dazzling opportunity to celebrate and enjoy this timeless classic.
