Review: THE BOOK OF MARY inspires the 'Diva Within' at DIRT DOGS THEATRE
by Brett Cullum - March 24, 2023
There is a short, tight list of Houston actors who could do a show about their life and have it mean anything more than a vanity project, but she is at the top of that register. There is something about Mary Hooper that Houston loves, and if you are lucky enough to catch this one woman show called THE BOOK OF MARY you will learn why.

Review: COWBOY BOB takes her last stand at the Alley until March 26th!
by Brett Cullum - March 20, 2023
What did our critic think of COWBOY BOB at ALLEY THEATRE? Despite any narrative difficulties, COWBOY BOB is still something to see. It’s a celebration of what a daring musical should feel like. It asks tough questions, it presents us with gorgeous ballads, and it shows off truly Texan stage design that feels authentic. Like the real life Peggy Tallas, it’s a brave piece that moves in bold directions.

The Catastrophic Theatre to Present Regional Premiere of CLEANSED By Sarah Kane
by BWW News Desk - March 18, 2023
In a former university, society's “undesirables” are subjected to a series of tortures designed to test the limits of human love on the battlefield of the human body. Explosively aching, hauntingly poetic, and disarmingly tender, CLEANSED is a fever-dream fable of unimaginable brutality and miraculous beauty. CLEANSED is about how love survives the most extreme circumstances. Violence is merely the obstacle. The story is one of righteous need and unrelenting hope.

by Miranda Keating - March 14, 2023
As much as I admire the art of ballet, I have never seen a new, professional ballet performance, one that no one else has seen before.

Review: MISERY Hobbles Along at Dirt Dogs
by Brett Cullum - March 07, 2023
That Dirt Dogs would choose MISERY for their “season of love” makes perfect sense. As a company they have made a name for themselves by creating plays fueled by testosterone laden energy and provocative rough language. There is an intensity and violence that suggests MISERY would be a perfect project for them, and indeed this production proves that assumption mostly correct.
