BWW Reviews: Tulane Shakespeare Festival Tackles Shakespeare… All Of It
by Heidi Scheuermann - July 23, 2013
There are only a few weeks left of the New Orleans Shakespeare Festival at Tulane University, and I urge you to attend a show! My show of choice for this year's festival was THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED). I have attended the Shakespeare Festival before and have always enjoyed seeing various renditions of my Shakespeare favorites, and when I saw that THE COMPLETE WORKS was being tackled I knew I couldn't pass it up.

BWW Reviews: What Happens in Camelot, Stays in Camelot; Rivertown Theaters Presents SPAMALOT
by Heidi Scheuermann - June 20, 2013
I remember going to plays at the children's theater in Rivertown when I was a very little girl. I even had a birthday party there once. I was so excited when I finally got to go to the 'big people' theatre with my grandmother. She took me to see YANKEE DOODLE DANDY, and that is something I have never forgotten. I returned to Rivertown Theaters recently to see their production of Monty Python's SPAMALOT.
