Kelly Bashar News

Dracula is at it again in this delightfully zany production!

Arizona Theatre Company will close its 58th season with Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, directed by Gordon Greenberg, featuring five actors portraying over a dozen characters in Tucson and Greater Phoenix.

Says actor Kelly Bashar says, “This Dracula is so campy and fun and fluid. I truly think there is something or someone for everyone in this show. I think the way we play with gender and sexuality and romance is perfect for our times.”

The Boy Who Loved Batman at The Straz

Rehearsals for the world premiere of The Boy Who Loved Batman began last week in New York City. See photos from inside the rehearsal room!

Michael Uslan's memoir, The Boy Who Loved Batman, captures this journey from a comic book-obsessed boy to the producer who brought a darker, grittier version of Batman to the big screen. Adapted for the stage, The Boy Who Loves Batman makes its world debut at the Straz Center for the Performing Arts from October 1 to November 10.

The Straz Center has unveiled a cast and creative team for its world premiere of The Boy Who Loved Batman in the intimate Jaeb Theater. Find out who is starring and how to get tickets.

To anyone who has not witnessed an Impro Theatre production, a word to the wise: you are about to experience a rare form of brilliance, sometimes seen in improvisation, but especially keen in Sondheim Unscripted, because it not only has an original book but music as well... totally in the style of Stephen Sondheim. A Sondheim composition is known for its incredible range of notes, strident chords, mixed rhythms, fugues, not to mention that his music amazingly conveys the themes or moods of the piece...to the letter. He is a unique composer, impossible to copy...well, Impro surely proves that statement wrong.
