Review: ON YOUR FEET! at St. Mark's Players
by Mary Lincer - May 3, 2025

What did our critic think of ON YOUR FEET! at St. Mark's Players?The absence of melody underneath them frequently gets these singers into intonation trouble, especially given the opening night technical problems with the sound.

BWW Review: THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME at The Arlington Players
by Elliot Lanes - Oct 13, 2018

Here is the scenario. Imagine going to a community theatre in Arlington, VA to see a show that requires a good size choir and a fourteen-piece orchestra. I imagine some of you might think that the company was crazy. I'm here to tell you that, in the case of The Arlington Players' 68th season opener The Hunchback of Notre Dame, you would be totally wrong. Never assume anything until you witness it. The production indeed features a twenty-member choir and it utilizes Michael Starobin's full orchestration but besides that, the production overall is as good as I've seen from some professional theatre companies. Yes, you read that right folks.
