Review: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at Ogunquit Playhouse Photo
Review: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at Ogunquit Playhouse
by Dan Marois - Sep 10, 2024

This is one of those offbeat musicals that entertains you with its unusual charm, catchy tunes, and cartoon-like characters. With the plot line featuring a talking plant that feeds only on human blood, this is not your grandmother’s kind of musical. (Unless your grandmother regularly attends the wide variety of shows performed at the Ogunquit Playhouse.)

Review: THE SOUND OF MUSIC at Lyric Opera Of Kansas City
by Alan Portner - Nov 9, 2023

Now being performed at the Kauffman Center and concluding this weekend is a wonderful rendition by the Lyric Opera of Kansas City of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s final composition together, “The Sound of Music”  This production is as good as it gets. Framed by massive settings by Peter J. Davison and glorious costumes by Alex Valasek, “Sound of Music” is the incredible, mostly true tale of the Von Trapp family singers and their escape from the Nazis taken from the Matriarch Maria Von Trapp’s 1949 memoir.

Review: LEGALLY BLONDE: THE MUSICAL at Starlight Theatre
by Alan Portner - Jul 9, 2023

Broadway veteran Carrie St. Louis is Starlight’s Elle Woods.  She is super in the role.  St. Louis is cute and bubbly, but no dumb bunny with a huge mezzo-soprano voice that dominates a theater with eight thousand seats.  She is also a determined and skilled dancer.
