Upcoming Shows
Review: A GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER at Avon Players
A production of A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder is only as strong as its many moving parts, and this cast delivered them with delicious precision. The women of the show were far more than romantic interests orbiting Monty’s schemes—they were a dazzling constellation all their own. Hosan…
Review: HAMILTON at The Fisher Theatre
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: THE LION KING at Broadway Grand Rapids
The Lion King has been touring North America for more than 23 years, and during that time has welcomed over 25 million theatergoers, making it North America’s longest-running and most-attended Broadway tour. Having already played more than 10,000 performances in over 90 cities across North America…

Review: LUCKY STIFF at University Of Michigan Flint Theatre

Review: DANCING WITH THE STARS LIVE at Fox Theatre
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: DISNEY ON ICE PRESENTS ROAD TRIP ADVENTURES at Van Andel Arena
True to the show's name, we hit the road with Mickey Mouse and his pals for a ride for some “Road Trip Adventures”. Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy invite the audience to embark on an interactive and memory-rich adventure to iconic Disney destinations.…
Review: HELL'S KITCHEN at Fisher Theatre
The national touring cast of Hell‘s Kitchen arrives at The Fisher Theatre. Hell’s Kitchen features pop hits from Grammy Award-winning Alicia Keys. Hell‘s Kitchen is a story of a young girl growing up in Manhattan trying to chase her dreams, find love, and navigate the city.…
Review: MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET at The Fox Theatre
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…
