FCS musicians will recreate Queen's iconic album 'A Night At The Opera' in its entirety, featuring a house band and rotating cast of singers performing classics such as 'You're My Best Friend' and 'Bohemian Rhapsody' at this one-night-only concert at The Acoustic on Saturday, February 9 at 8:00 PM.

For A CHRISTMAS CAROL EXPERIENCE like you have never seen before, I highly recommend the way that Fairfield Center Stage and The Fairfield Museum bring you this classic story. In Fairfield's Burr Mansion the audience follows the story from room to room, watching this extremely talented cast act out this classic tale.

The story of love never grows old.

A lot of people have had their hands in creating Peter Pan, Jr., and the result is a wonderful show for the children. Based on the 1904 J.M. Barrie and 1953 Disney film, Peter Pan, Jr. streamlines a lot of the story and songs of the productions with which most adults are familiar. The most glaring omissions are the songs, 'I'm Flying' and 'I Won't Grow Up' and the barely visible strings of the flying effects. But this production at the Downtown Cabaret Children's Theatre more than make up for that. And, after all, most of the kids won't know what they missed, and will enjoy the show anyway.

Few popular novels have been as powerful about a subject as Harper Lee's 1960 novel, To Kill A Mockingbird. As a film with an A-list star and as a play that is produced from time to time (but not nearly as often as it should be, in this critic's opinion), it's always a solid hit. Thankfully, the creative team at the Bridgeport Theatre Company did not depend on this.

Bridgeport Theatre Company, soon to celebrate four years since it was founded, is presenting Dreamgirls, the big, bold, groundbreaking musical. The Henry Krieger-Tom Eyen show premiered in 1981 and is loosely based on Diana Ross and The Supremes and other singers who helped make Motown a huge crossover success. More than 30 years later, it is still a terrific show, but a little cutting would make it easier for today's audiences to digest.
