Last night on American Idol, the top 8 sang songs made popular on the silver screen. Check out photos from the episode below!

To say that last week's American Idol elimination was a shocker is the understatement of the century. In fact, Pia Toscano's untimely departure from the show seems to have left a bad taste in the mouths of Idol fans everywhere, with Pia being the subject of talk show chats and internet gossip all week. I for one, won't cease missing watching her on a weekly basis anytime soon.

Connecticut Repertory Theatre (CRT) will present the smash-hit Broadway Musical Urinetown, featuring Broadway star Andrea McArdle, April 14 - 17 & 27 - 30, 2011 in the Harriet S. Jorgensen Theatre on the Storrs campus.

Pittsburgh CLO's 2011 Summer Season will fill the Benedum Center with performances audiences will remember well into 2012. In addition to favorite local performers, this summer will be highlighted by talented Broadway stars, accomplished recording artists and veterans of the stage and screen.

Right from the opening few notes of "9 to 5: The Musical", now performing at the 5th Avenue Theatre, the show wants to draw you back to connect with the original film. And while the show is a solid bit of fluff and definitely improved from the last time I saw it (but we'll get to that in a minute) occasionally those moments of connection get a little cheesy and desperate.

In last night's American Idol results show, front-runner Pia Toscano was eliminated from the show. Check out her performance of 'River Deep Mountain High' (the performance that sent her home) below. Does this seem worthy of ninth place?

It seems too early in the competition for the finalists of American Idol to be so universally outstanding. Sure, last night's performances included both highs and lows, and true I'm attached to some of the competitors more than others. Quite frankly, I find it highly unusual that the top 9 are as polished as they are. Perhaps it's a reflection of the show's new mentors and/or judges?

Down to just nine performers, American Idol's remaining contestants have proven week after week that they make up perhaps the most talented bunch of finalists in the show's 10 season history. No complaints there, but such a statistic also means that even excellent performances tonight could warrant a ticket home.

9 to 5: The Musical arrives at The 5th Avenue Theatre, just in time to brighten the final grey days of spring. Based on the wildly popular 1980s film of the same name, this outrageously funny Broadway delight features the original movie's blockbuster title tune, plus more than a dozen new songs by the queen of country music, iconic songwriter, movie star, and entrepreneur -- Dolly Parton!

'No more saves, no more exceptions, and no one can escape the outcome of your over 55 million votes.' Ryan Seacrest painted the perfect picture of tonight's episode right off the bat. With last week's dramatic Casey Abrams rescue, tonight became the first and only double elimination of the season.

In the epic event that was last week's ‘American Idol' results show, the judges chose to use the one ‘save' of the season to hang on to Casey Abrams for another week - and rightfully so. The consequence of that decision however, is that two contestants will get the boot this week in what is sure to be a painful elimination.

Broadway veteran and season three alum Fantasia, Jamie Foxx, and will.iam will perform on the March 31 double elimination episode of FOX's AMERICAN IDOL.

On last night's episode of American Idol, the top 11 truly shined as they belted out the best of the motown repertoire. The general consensus about the performances has been overwhelming positive, with great responses from the idol judges, and the internet community alike. Even some of the weaker contestants really stepped it up, making tonight's results more unpredictable and tense than ever.
