Review: THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE at Delaware Theatre Company

Review: HOW I LEARNED WHAT I LEARNED at RESIDENT ENSEMBLE PLAYERS
A one-man show is a monumental undertaking—and a monumental responsibility. For veteran REP actor Hassan El-Amin – who is Black -there is further gravitas in giving voice to August Wilson’s HOW I LEARNED WHAT I LEARNED, a 90-minute, no-intermission journey through the experiences that forged o…
Review: ANNIE at The Candlelight Theatre

Review: CABARET at Smyrna Opera House
The Smyrna Opera House’s Cabaret isn’t just good—it’s a minor miracle. This is their first musical in years, and instead of easing back in with something safe, they went straight for one of the most stylistically demanding, tonally complex shows in the canon. And they pulled it off with grit…

Review: POTUS at The Contemporary
Producing a play called POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive in today’s political climate takes nerve. Aisle Say applauds Kerry Kristine McElone and the Board of City Theatre for having exactly that kind of chutzpah. Mounting this razor-edged farce at a mo…
