Review: HAMILTON at The Fisher Theatre


by Emily Schenk - May 05, 2026

Hamilton is the room where it happens—a history remix that’s not throwing away its shot at dazzling you with rhyme, rhythm, and revolution. Founding fathers trade powdered wigs for mic drops as ambition rises faster than the tempo, and duels come with both pistols and punchlines. This production...

Review: LUCKY STIFF at University Of Michigan Flint Theatre


by Emily Schenk - March 28, 2026

Review: DANCING WITH THE STARS LIVE at Fox Theatre


by Emily Schenk - March 02, 2026

it’s hard for me to pick a favorite performance of the night, but if I had to pick one that stands out, it was when Brandon Armstrong and Britt Stewart danced to Hit Me With A Hot Note And Watch Me Bounce. Every season, I see these two get criminally overlooked on the show! Brandon Armstrong is a ...

Review: MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET at The Fox Theatre


by Emily Schenk - December 17, 2025

Doris Walker, played by Ellie Baker, was the star of the show, and in more ways than one, her angelic voice and quick wit really played into the fast-talking talking powerful female, Macy’s exact executive, her child, and charisma was matched only by The Man and Red himself. Kris Kringle brought j...

Review: WHO’S HOLIDAY! at National Broadway Theatre


by Brian Hilbrand - December 16, 2025

A story, although not written by Seuss, is an after-story of sorts, detailing what happens the night after Cindy Lou Who meets the Grinch, who, interestingly enough, and without giving too much away, end up getting married.  The wild and crazy events that go down as a result of that are nothing sho...
