Review: MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL at Orpheum Theatre


by Steve Murray - December 19, 2025

What did our critic think of MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL at Orpheum Theatre? The appeal, based on the audience, is the acknowledgment of the song snippets – an “I know that song” reward. But the conceit grows thin and becomes one big cheat....

Review: MONTY PYTHON'S SPAMALOT at Kennedy Center's Eisenhower Theater


by Alexander C. Kafka - December 19, 2025

Review: THE CHER SHOW at Stadthalle Wien


by Martin Ganeider - December 19, 2025

Do you believe in life after love, in flashy paillettes and loads of Vintage Vegas-style show attitudes? THE CHER SHOW is celebrating its Tour start in Vienna, in the (for this show oversized) Stadthalle F, and what's not to celebrate about a Show featuring 35 Hits from CHER, the show's plot?...

Review Roundup: What Did the Critics Think of Cole Escola's OH, MARY!?
