A certain kind of loneliness comes from staying in one place, and Kenneth, the main character in Eboni Booth's PRIMARY TRUST, knows it well. He has lived his whole life in Cranberry, New York, shaped by childhood loss and the comfort of routine. He runs his bookshop, meets his friend Bert at the tiki restaurant every night and lives in a world where nothing ever changes.

Interview: Craig Franke of BOOK OF MORMON at Saenger Theatre

THE BOOK OF MORMON has been delighting audiences for 15 years with its audacious blend of irreverent comedy and genuine heart. As the show enters its second decade of touring, it's currently running its long-awaited New Orleans engagement at the Saenger Theatre.

ONCE Will Come to Le Petit Theatre in June

Review: THE SECRET CIRCUS THE MUSICAL at Mudlark Theatre

The best thing about THE SECRET CIRCUS is that it knows exactly what it is and commits without apology. Chanel Samson and Holly Anne Mitchell's original musical, performed at the intimate Mudlark Theatre in New Orleans, is campy, heartfelt and unabashedly earnest in a way that lesser shows would sand down into palatability. It shouts its secrets out loud and dares you to join in.
