Review: AMADEUS at REC ROOM ARTS

Review: AMADEUS at REC ROOM ARTS

by Brett Cullum · September 28, 2026

At first, when I heard Amadeus as a season opener, I thought, “How safe.” After seeing the show, all I can say is, “How dangerous.”…

Review: COME FROM AWAY at Stages Houston

Review: COME FROM AWAY at Stages Houston

by Jonathan Netek · September 25, 2026

Everyone remembers where they were and what they were doing the morning of September 11, 2001, and as a former New Yorker who lived there when it happened, that day is indelibly burned into my memory.…

Review: RHINOCEROS at THE CATASTROPHIC THEATRE

Review: RHINOCEROS at THE CATASTROPHIC THEATRE

by Brett Cullum · September 22, 2026

This company is at the top of its game, and the performances of George Parker and Kyle Sturdivant are iconic. But please, let’s progress in our politics and not make them do it again!…

Review: BABETTE'S FEAST at MIGHTY ACORN PRODUCTIONS

Review: BABETTE'S FEAST at MIGHTY ACORN PRODUCTIONS

by Brett Cullum · September 21, 2026

The acting here is superb, a very strong ensemble taking on a literary tale of how art can transform the world. It’s also a meditation on what we gain from immigrants who bring new perspectives, new expressions, and new art. At its heart, it’s about love and generosity of spirit.…

Review: PROOF at 4th WALL THEATRE COMPANY

Review: PROOF at 4th WALL THEATRE COMPANY

by Brett Cullum · September 12, 2026

4TH Wall does wonderful work here, and I really admire David Auburn’s script more for what it doesn’t do rather than what it does. It never really boils over into any sort of climax and refuses to offer an easy solution for anyone’s relationship in the show.…

Review: THORNFIELD at ZOOM SHAKESPEARE PRODUCTIONS

Review: THORNFIELD at ZOOM SHAKESPEARE PRODUCTIONS

by Brett Cullum · September 8, 2026

It is painstakingly faithful to the book, save for some extra beats that make Jane a more modern-minded woman. Rebecca Bernstein’s performance is wonderful and a career-high for her so far. Luke Hales is the right Rochester, and Todd Thigpen is a delicious Mason.…

Review: COLLECTIVE RAGE at MILDRED'S UMBRELLA

Review: COLLECTIVE RAGE at MILDRED'S UMBRELLA

by Brett Cullum · September 5, 2026

I never thought I would have such a good time watching five women talk about their sexual organs, but I absolutely understood every moment as if I had been lucky enough to have been assigned female at birth.…

Past Shows

TOROS

Rec Room Arts will present the regional premiere of TOROS, a play by Danny Tejera, directed by Lily Wolff. The story follows three late-20-somethings—Toro, Juan, and Andrea—who navigate their identities and ambitions against the backdrop of a suburban garage in Madrid. As they...

Spring Awakening

Spring Awakening

Sep 5 – Sep 28, 2024

A story of adolescent anarchy, of teenagers silenced and controlled by a censoring society, and the devastating consequences of the freedom students find outside of the classroom. 'Spring Awakening,' the groundbreaking Tony Award-winning musical, will have an intimate and...

King James

King James

Feb 22 – Mar 16, 2024

Sports: for some, a trivial diversion; for many others, a way to perceive and experience something greater than ourselves. Over a ten-year span, for two friends, it becomes a means to articulate everything they would otherwise be unable to express.
