Review: MEAN GIRLS at Seacoast Repertory Theatre

Review: MEAN GIRLS at Seacoast Repertory Theatre

by Dan Marois · June 15, 2026

by Dan Marois · May 11, 2026

by Dan Marois · April 14, 2026

There is something immediately disarming about “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.” It doesn’t arrive with spectacle or grand stakes; there are no sweeping romances or life-or-death consequences. Instead, it gives you a handful of awkward kids, a gymnasium, and a spelling competition.…

Review: DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS at Seacoast Repertory Theatre

Review: DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS at Seacoast Repertory Theatre

by Dan Marois · March 15, 2026

There’s one thing that the Seacoast Repertory Theatre knows how to do very well. It’s transforming their intimate, brick-walled space in Portsmouth into a world that feels ten times its actual size. Their current production of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels—the 2005 musical based on the Steve Martin/…
