BWW Reviews: OH! WHAT A LOVELY WAR from ACT 1 at Darkhorse Theatre
by Jeffrey Ellis - June 08, 2010
A revival of a much-earlier production during ACT 1's first 20 seasons, which was also directed by Seay, the cast featured some returning favorites including Riley Bryant, Caroline Davis, Douglas Goodman and Jordan Keller. The presence of these Nashville stage veterans made the production all the more appealing and, when supplemented by a talented group of newcomers, ensured that audiences would walk away humming a sprightly tune while contemplating the horrors of World War I. Who knew mustard gas could be so darn much fun?

BWW Reviews: DOUBT at David Lipscomb University's Shamblin Theatre
by Jeffrey Ellis - June 04, 2010

For the next two weekends, Nashville audiences are given the opportunity to see Doubt in a remarkably acted and superbly staged production at David Lipscomb University's Shamblin Theatre.
