BWW Review: CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG at the Fort Wayne Civic Theatre
by Tara Olivero - August 01, 2019
Walking into the Fort Wayne Civic Theatre's production of CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG, I had absolutely no idea what to expect. I watched the 1968 movie exactly once in my childhood, and all that I remembered was having nightmares about the Childcatcher. That said, I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed the show. Whether people decide to see it out of a love of old-fashioned musicals or whether they're looking for a fun afternoon or evening with their kids, chances are high that audience members will delight in this whimsical production.

BWW Review: ONCE ON THIS ISLAND at Three Rivers Music Theatre is a MUST-SEE
by Tara Olivero - May 01, 2019
I was lucky enough to be able to attend the opening night of Three Rivers Music Theatre's ONCE ON THIS ISLAND last weekend, and let me tell you, this production is special. In most local Fort Wayne productions, you hand over your ticket, sit down, watch as the lights go down, and take in the show; the lights come back on, and you walk out, typically satisfied. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. But this show offered so much more, and now that I've experienced it, I don't know that I'll ever be satisfied with anything less.
