Review: SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD at Broadway National Theatre
by Brian Hilbrand - May 26, 2025
What did our critic think of SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD at Broadway National Theatre? Songs For a New World is a different show because it has a musical revue feel more than a traditional musical. It works as the music flows one song right to the next, allowing for a four-person cast to tell so many different stories through various roles. The Actors and Actresses were not short of talent musically, with such great harmonies and storytelling by song, and I could have listened to them along with the live orchestra all night long! The set was unique with rotating photos and minimal pieces of furniture and props, as well as frequent costume changes to bring you seamlessly along to each character's journey in their “New World”.

Review: LUNGS at Tipping Point Theatre
by Emily Schenk - May 16, 2025
This show takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions. It included several monologues on the climate crisis we are currently facing. Kristin Shields's character describes the environmental impact of having a child, which can result in tons of CO2 emissions yearly. This production raises the question of adopting children, planting trees, and recycling. LUNGS will make you laugh and may even make you cry, but what stuck with me the most was that it made me think and feel for the future. I love a show you can't stop discussing with friends and family. LUNGS will definitely be a conversation starter at your next dinner party. I highly suggest seeing LUNGS at Tipping Point Theatre.
