BWW Review: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at Broadway At The Hobby Center
Broadway at the Hobby Center has brought Houston one of the best touring versions of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA out there, and it notably soars hitting most all of the notes we demand. Audiences should have an absolute blast at this one....
BWW Review: THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW at Pitch Me This Productions
Pitch Me This Productions has done a great job bringing THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW to life for this year's annual dose of absolute pleasure and sins of the flesh. The circus idea is fun, even if it doesn't truly make a ton of thematic sense with the Gothic material....
BWW Review: POTTED POTTER Is a Goofy, Magical Ride
Over the last decade, Dan and Jeff have created a frantic, fast-paced 70 minute romp through all seven Harry Potter books. Yes, that's roughly 4000 pages of story and over 300 characters culled down and squeezed into a little over an hour and yes, it's quite the sight to see....
BWW Review: THE OTHER PLACE Misses The Mark
I've always liked the intimacy of the Neuhaus stage at the Alley Theatre. I was left feeling like I witnessed real theatre magic through the special effects, interesting dialogue, and over the top violence in LIEUTENANT OF INISHMORE, and felt hopeful and inspired by the end of ROCK N' ROLL. But THE ...
BWW Review: Adam Lambert Rocks Houston!
Halloween came early for all the Glamerts in Houston! American Idol alum and on again/off again QUEEN frontman Adam Lambert came to the Space City on Wednesday October 28th to show The Revention Music Center how to rock and roll....
BWW Review: INTO THE WOODS Invigorates Audiences at HFAC
INTO THE WOODS is an ambitious undertaking for a community theater. The music is complex and the costumes and set are anything but minimalistic. HFAC's ambition is realized through this production directed by Sam Brown, and you can clearly see his heart and soul in a musical that rivals some profess...
BWW Reviews: PIPPIN, THE MUSICAL Magic, Razzle Dazzle Under the Big Top!
The circus is in town and I ain't talking about Barnum & Bailey! The national tour of the 2013 revival of PIPPIN made its way to the Bayou City and I'm hippopotamusly happy to see this tour! When creative geniuses such as Bob Fosse and Stephen Schwartz are at the helm of the original material, there...
BWW Review: MAC WELLMAN'S DRACULA at Mildred's Umbrella
Sit back and simply enjoy the spectacle of the ladies discovering their sex while the men recoil in horror and sing songs about 'hair in the air', and then pretend it all made sense when you wake up in the morning. It's nonsense, both a trick and a treat for Halloween....
BWW Review: FREUD'S LAST SESSION Is A Rousing Debate At A.D. Players
It's fun to be the fly on the wall, and that's one of the many intriguing aspects of FREUD'S LAST SESSION....
BWW Review: SRO Productions Makes a Passionate and Poignant AMERICAN IDIOT
AMERICAN IDIOT is everything you could want from a regional premiere as it takes the slick polish of Broadway and redefines it into passionate intimacy for a playhouse. Audiences are going to have an excellent time rocking out with these kids....
BWW Review: ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS Serves Big Laughs in Newly Renovated Alley Theatre
I was pleased to see many familiar faces last Wednesday at the Alley Theatre's performance of ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS. It helped set the tone for the comedic and interactive performance that seemed to ask us to leave any egos at the door, relax, and sit back for a night of farcical storytelling and cra...

BWW Review: Rice Theatre Program's MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING Is Something Special
William Shakespeare's MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, the granddaddy of all rom-coms, is the story of two courtships: Benedick and Beatrice, both too stubborn and clever for their own good, and Claudio and Hero, both too innocent and naive to not be taken advantage of by the resident villain. It's a classic...
BWW Review: VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE at Theatre Southwest
Small theatre takes on big comedy with VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE...
BWW Review: SMALL MOUTH SOUNDS Resounds Through Houston
As each of us seeks to carve our own path, we yearn to connect with someone that understands us. This is why SMALL MOUTH SOUNDS resonates with audiences, and why presenting it with very little sound is relevant in today's fast-paced and technologically connected society, where silence and real hum...
BWW Review: THE LITTLE MERMAID at TUTS
THE LITTLE MERMAID is perfect for little girls who want to be Ariel when they grow up, but adults may find it too simple a tale....
