Spotlight: A RAISIN IN THE SUN at TheatreSquared Image

Now - September 15, 2024 A RAISIN IN THE SUN WRITTEN BY Lorraine Hansberry DIRECTED BY DEXTER J. SINGLETON TheatreSquared | Fayetteville, AR Lorraine

Hansberry's timeless masterpiece unfolds on Chicago’s South Side, delving into the divergent dreams and conflicts within the Younger family across three generations. The play paints a vivid portrait of their struggle to retain dignity amidst a harsh and ever-changing world. With poignant depth, Hansberry's work continues to resonate as a searing testament of hope and inspiration.

“Arguably as well known today as it was epochal when it debuted in 1959…and like all great works, it has proved itself incessantly timely.” — The New York Times

RELATED STORIES - Arkansas

Review: CHICAGO: TEEN EDITION at King Opera House

Once upon a time, Fort Smith was considered the gateway to the Wild West (Indian Territory—present-day Oklahoma), and in turn, it had a very wild history to go with it. So, it is fitting that the first show I saw with The Community School of the Arts and Institute for the Creative Arts is Chicago: Teen Edition, performed March 13-16 in the beautiful King Opera House in Van Buren, which is just next door.

Review: DISNEY'S BEAUTY AND THE BEAST at Conway Christian High School

I love going to educational productions, so when Director Christina Munoz Madsen invited me to see Conway Christian High School’s presentation of DISNEY’S BEAUTY AND THE BEAST March 17, I was thrilled! It is so great to see what the students have learned, and Madsen said they did everything “from designing the set, to creating costumes, to making props, to figuring out the lighting system and spotlight, to program/graphic creation, to practicing all the lines, music and choreo… wow!!”

Review: AESCHYLUS' PROMETHEUS BOUND at Arts & Science Center For Southeast Arkansas

Powerful! Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas in Pine Bluff brought a very moving experience when their Readers' Theater presented Prometheus Bound March 13-15. Aeschylus’ classic Greek tragedy was brought to life through a modern translation by Bryan Doerries, offering a fresh and thought-provoking perspective using the power of storytelling to spark meaningful conversations about justice, resistance, and humanity.

Review: THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE at The Link Theatre Company

Arkansas’ newest professional theatre. The Link Theatre Company, is blossoming in Northeast Arkansas, and it’s well worth the drive. Founded by Broadway couple Matt Cavenaugh and Jenny Powers, I had the pleasure of seeing a very entertaining production of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee on Sunday, March 16, at The Fowler Center on the Arkansas State University Fowler Center.
