Review: THE SHARK IS BROKEN at The Warwick Theatre

Review: THE SHARK IS BROKEN at The Warwick Theatre

by Alan Portner · August 17, 2026

“The Shark Is Broken” is a fascinating invite into a hidden world that informs us how the sausage gets made when it comes to mega-hit films. This play snickers as three famous actors suffer “slings and arrows” while Bruce, a damned mechanical shark, turns turtle repeatedly during filming “…

Review: WICKED at Kansas City Music Hall

Review: WICKED at Kansas City Music Hall

by Alan Portner · August 17, 2026

Review: INTIMATE APPAREL at Kansas City Actors' Theatre

Review: INTIMATE APPAREL at Kansas City Actors' Theatre

by Alan Portner · August 9, 2026

The year is 1905.  The place is New York City. The play is Lynn Nottage’s intimate and surprisingly affective comedy/drama “Intimate Apparel.” “Intimate Apparel” tells a tale drawn from Nottage’s own passed down ancestry stories and perhaps a little imagined history.  The inspiration i…

Review: DISNEY'S FROZEN at White Theatre

Review: DISNEY'S FROZEN at White Theatre

by Alan Portner · July 15, 2026

This joint White Theatre and Coterie production succeeds with dazzling sets, super special effects, the best pit band I have heard in many years, and a cast who seems determined to wring every bit of value out of the playscript and the score that is there.What did our critic think of DISNEY'S FROZEN…
