Interview: Suzanne King of DANCING AT LUGHNASA at Theatre Suburbia
by Brett Cullum - April 21, 2025
I'll tell you why I decided to do it; then I'll tell you about the toughness, but I read this about 1999, and just loved it. It made the hairs on my arms stand up, especially visualizing the very last scene with the entire cast swaying back and forth, and giving the illusion of them not swaying. You're not sure if they are or not.

Do you ever feel bad making fun of some of these folks? Because I mean, let's face it, Broadway actors. They take themselves a little bit seriously. I am terrified of interviewing Patti Lupone!

Review: DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY at Stages Houston
by Brett Cullum - April 16, 2025
Stages Houston has wisely brought in DIXIE’S TUPPERWARE PARTY for its last hurrah, and she is doing a mini-residency that the purveyor of plastic is in the middle of until April 20th. The simple show works well in the intimacy of the Sterling Theater space, and we’re closer to the saleswoman than we ever have been.

Interview: Kennedy Kanagawa of WAITRESS at Theatre Under The Stars
by Brett Cullum - April 14, 2025
I was born in Tokyo, Japan, and lived there till I was around ten. My mother met my father in the States. But then, when they got married, they moved back to Japan, had babies raised us, and then my mother remarried. I guess when I was ten, we moved to DC because of his job. I've been here ever since.

I have had a couple of run-ins. I've been married three times. I have three kids that I know of. I was doing things and I never thought I would be a Tupperware lady. I was doing things that normally weren't panning out from where I was from. My mama said, “I'm not pretty enough to work at this strip club!”

Interview: Ken Ludwig of BASKERVILLE: A SHERLOCK HOLMES MYSTERY at Alley Theatre
by Brett Cullum - April 11, 2025
I like to write all the time and generally write two plays a year, just because I take very seriously the notion of this being my profession. I would say playwright is spelled WRIGHT [write]. It's like a Cartwright or a wheelwright. It's somebody who rolls up their sleeves and does their work.

Review: N at Company OnStage
by Brett Cullum - April 09, 2025
It’s a word that has divided people for generations, so much so that I won’t even write it in this review. Rising Houston actor Cardero Berryman thoughtfully directs N; surprisingly, this is his first time at the helm of a play. He has a wonderful cast, great technical support, and the appropriately intimate Company OnStage theater space to produce the piece in.

Review: THE FROZEN SECTION thaws at Catastrophic Theatre
by Brett Cullum - April 07, 2025
It has a stunning cast, technical brilliance, and enough great poetic ideas to keep you thinking about it for days. It’s an intriguing piece that should have a long life. But in its current iteration playing at the MATCH, THE FROZEN SECTION runs long at almost two hours with no intermission, and the pacing seems off throughout its inflated run time.
