Review: Beczala and Golovatenko Make Met’s CHENIER a Memorable Night under Rustioni
by Richard Sasanow - November 26, 2025
For those of us who like verismo opera—combining the raw emotions of everyday people with historical splendor—but have heard one too many BOHEMEs, TOSCAs, TURANDOTs and BUTTERFLYs in this lifetime, noting Giordano’s ANDREA CHENIER in the Met’s repertoire for this season seemed like a godsend. Not seen in these parts since 2014, this tale of the French Revolution, a poet (the title role, sung by tenor Piotr Beczala) and blinding love set to a sweeping score was something to look forward to.

Feature: REFLECTIONS ON RUSSIA: GMU CAST MEMBERS ON AN EPIC COLLEGE THEATRICAL EXPERIENCE
by Elliot Lanes - November 26, 2025
Every once in awhile you go to see a show not knowing what the final product is going to be. The epic musical Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 was one of those musicals that was very specific to its original staging because of it’s tent location. It was totally immersive. When the show moved to Broadway, it didn’t have the same effect.

Review: DRUNK CHRISTMAS CAROL at Drunk Shakespeare
by Brett Cullum - November 26, 2025

Review: DOUGHNUT DRIVE, Drayton Arms Theatre
by Niamh Jones - November 26, 2025
