BWW Review: The Milwaukee Rep's MY WAY Celebrates Sinatra & the Great American Songbook
The cast does right by Old Blue Eyes, bringing a perfect blend of reverence, theatricality, and their own interpretations to the tunes of My Way.
The latest reviews and critic recommendations from Milwaukee, WI.
The cast does right by Old Blue Eyes, bringing a perfect blend of reverence, theatricality, and their own interpretations to the tunes of My Way.
At the crossroads of the Bard and Beatlemania lies the fantastic As You Like It.
The Milwaukee Rep welcomes theater back into the Stiemke Studio with Antonio's Song/I Was Dreaming of a Son by Dael Orlandersmith and Antonio Edwards Suarez, directed by Mark Clements.
After a delayed opening, Toni Stone is finally game-on at the Milwaukee Repertory Theater.
A 90-minute confection.
A lot of love and hard work went into this production, and if this cast keeps doing what they’re doing, they’re on track to charm audiences throughout their two-weekend run.
It had been a staggering 701 days since the Milwaukee Rep's last performance of A Christmas Carol, but this holiday tradition is back at the Pabst and as fantastic as ever.
'Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?' Sure, Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about: families making memories together, talking about what the holiday season means to them, and showing those on the sidelines a little love, care, and attention.
An unconventional holiday treat is on stage at Milwaukee's Skylight Music Theatre through January 2nd.
This show strikes a perfect emotional balance that steals your heart and splits your sides.
At the intersection of Packer fandom, Wisconsin pride, and musical theater lies Dad’s Season Tickets.
Going blindly into The Constructivists' Wink was the right choice.
It takes big-time guts to bare your butt cheeks on stage, and these guys bare more than that.
Midsummer makes smiles and laughter easy.
A scintillating, scatting, sensational return to live theater -- who could ask for anything more? The Milwaukee Rep delivers a heaping portion of the good stuff in the triumphant 'First Lady of Song,' a concert salute to America’s favorite jazz singer, Ella Fitzgerald.
The On Demand experience is nicely handled and smoothly filmed.
The music video for The Sound opens with footage of 2020’s Black Lives Matter protests.
This is a choose-your-own-adventure play, and First Stage rigged it so that audiences could vote by phone to help our hero Callaway Brown make key decisions: Should he pack his inhaler or his eyeglasses? Follow mysterious footsteps or radio for help?
In their sixth collaboration, Directors Jill Anna Ponasik and Dani Kuepper take the theatrics to an Enchanted Park(ing lot).
Take the little ones to see this show for the laughs, the silliness, and the kind of theater for which we only have the kids to thank.
The bottom line is: 'Spelling Bee' is a feel-good musical comedy that could fall flat if not cast right.
I always expect greatness from 'The Lion King.
Days later I'm craving the songs, the performances a?" to witness the staging once more, to see what else I can pick up on, or to experience what new twist Rodin will bring to another evening's show.
It makes for a most dynamic piece of theater.
Milwaukee, have your dollar bills handy! Though it's only been on stage since 2014, Matthew Lopez's Georgia McBride is on its way to becoming a bonafide dragtastic legend.
