Review: THE NOTEBOOK: THE MUSICAL at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts


by Albert Gutierrez - May 14, 2026

The stage production does make a lot of strides that strengthens the endurance and popularity of this love story. It repeats iconic moments from the popular 2004 film, but isn’t aping the original screenplay in any way. A new libretto offers a fresh take that borrows the basic structure of the nov...

Review: Make Farce Funny Again with POTUS at Theater West End


by Albert Gutierrez - May 03, 2026

Review: ONLY SOME OF GOD'S CHILDREN OR MISSISSIPPI MAGNOLIAS at The SigPro Studio


by Benoit Teves - April 21, 2026

Paris Clayton III’s world premiere production is a compelling, historically-grounded drama that unfortunately finds itself hindered by the 'unintended insularity' of its writer-director. While the staging often feels as stuck as the characters it depicts, a standout second act offers flashes of br...

Review: KIMBERLY AKIMBO at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts


by Albert Gutierrez - April 16, 2026

We learn that the suburban fantasy is not sustainable, primarily because such a fantasy can only ever be a dream. The reality of suburban living, as told by Kimberly Akimbo, shows there is much more nuance to everyday life than the nuclear family with a white picket fence and a wholesome dinner at e...

Review: HENRY VI, PART III: THE RISE OF RICHARD at Orlando Shakes


by Benoit Teves - April 11, 2026

Orlando Shakes’ 'Bare Bard' production of Henry VI Part III is a high-stakes, dangerous, and riveting 'palette cleanser' for the theatre purist. Its scrappy, sophisticated storytelling proves all you need is a script and some 'Bare Bard' brilliance....
