Carolines on Broadway announces its line-up for the month of August, highlighted by headliners Lil Rel Howery, from NCB's 'The Carmichael Show,' August 4 - 6; Justin Willman, from his Comedy Central special 'Sleight of Mouth,' August 11 - 14; Nikki Glaser, star of Comedy Central's 'Not Safe with Nikki Glaser' and the film 'Trainwreck,' August 18 - 21; Gerald Kelly, from NBC's 'Last Comic Standing,' August 25; and Nate Bargatze, from his Comedy Central special Nate Bargatze: Full Time Magic, August 26 - 28.

A surprisingly well-done, beautifully-paced production that feels like a truly fresh revival of something many of us have forever seared in our brains, this brand new, Jack O'Brien-helmed national tour of THE SOUND OF MUSIC---now on stage at Orange County's Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa through July 31---is a resplendent enterprise that is equal parts heartwarming nostalgia and entertaining, feel-good theater. Say what you will about how hokey and old-fashioned this show may be now... but I, for one, truly adored it. Besides its lovely visuals, this new revival has made a wonderful discovery in Kerstin Anderson, who plays a spunky, utterly charming version of everyone's favorite nun-turned-nanny Maria.
