Review: HAND TO GOD at Keegan Theatre
by David Friscic - Feb 10, 2025
The audacious and lively play Hand to God is a daring and yet, an oddly compelling and textured meditation, on society’s hypocrisies set within a more intimate framework of five characters whose minds are tortured with clashes between reason and fiery lust -driven passions. This play makes the puppet -driven 2004 musical Avenue Q look like Mary Poppins by comparison; this play is much more acidic and radically subversive in tone.

Review: LITTLE WOMEN at Capital One Hall
by Rachael F. Goldberg - May 18, 2024
There’s unfortunately little about the current tour of 'Little Women' that will bring this show new audiences. It often feels like the purpose of the musical may be more to tell the sisters’ love stories than to tell the story of their love for each other, and the production choices for this tour do little to save it from its lackluster material.
Review: LITTLE WOMEN, THE MUSICAL at Van Wezel
by Shanti M. Kennedy - Mar 11, 2024
What did our critic think of LITTLE WOMEN, THE MUSICAL at Van Wezel? Little Women, the Musical, based on Louisa May Alcott’s 1868 novel, focuses on the relationship of four sisters while their father is away serving in the Union Army during the Civil War. Loosely based on Alcott’s life, this beloved story is brought to life on the stage with music and a new melodramatic flare.
