What did our critic Something Rotten! is a musical’s musical! There’s something here for everyone here - pure entertainment for folks who just want to be entertained, and, for the seasoned musical theatre nerd, infinite musical theatre references, from obvious to obscure, that make the show even that much more fun.

Review: THE CRUCIBLE, Shakespeare's Globe
by Debbie Gilpin - May 22, 2025

The Globe Theatre is no stranger to witches, but usually this takes the form of the Wyrd Sisters in the Scottish Play rather than a trip to Salem in the 1690s. It's a rare thing indeed for a non-Shakespeare play to take pride of place at the heart of the Globe Theatre during the summer season, let alone a 20th century classic, so this outdoor production of The Crucible is marked out as pretty special before it even starts.

Student Blog: A Weekend Abroad in London!
by Student Blogger: Ava Karlstad - Apr 3, 2025

This trip started out very unexpectedly. It began with me waking up on a Friday at 5 am to get to the train station by 7 am. However, I was in for a surprise when the line to get to the platform was incredibly long. I stood in it for about 5 minutes until I asked someone what it was for. To my bewilderment, I discovered they had found an old World War II bomb on one of the tracks and all trains that day had been canceled. I began to panic because I had tickets to see The Devil Wears Prada that night and a hotel booked, both of which would not give refunds.
