Review: SOME LIKE IT HOT Sizzles and Shakes at Dr. Phillips Center

When SOME LIKE IT HOT began on Broadway, it was celebrated for updating a classic film to modern audiences in ways and themes not readily apparent from the original source material. After having played a successful year-long run on Broadway, the show concluded on December 30, 2023. Nine long months later, it finally mounted a national tour within the greater United States. And now, for a spectacular pre-Christmas week, Central Florida gets to bear witness to the storied spectacle as Broadway visitors did. Much of what’s been seen on Broadway has been lovingly transferred to this touring production, making it a show not to be missed.

Review: HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS at the Aronoff Center

With its spectacular design elements and a talented, lively cast, How the Grinch Stole Christmas is a great outing for any family looking to celebrate some holiday spirit, or really anyone who appreciates the classic story by Dr. Seuss.

Review: SOME LIKE IT HOT at Belk Theater

While Marc Shaiman's score often sounds effortful in striving to make SOME LIKE IT HOT what it was in the first place—a musical with cherry-picked hits for Marilyn Monroe to sing—the book by Matthew Lopez and Amber Ruffin helps the story and its main characters diversify and evolve. Director Casey Nicholaw's high-heel tap choreography further assures high energy all evening long.

Review: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at Revolution Stage Company

Review: HERE IN AMERICA, Orange Tree Theatre

David Edgar's new stage play about Elia Kazan and Arthur Miller places us mainly in Connecticut, 1952, but struggles to tease out the personal and political complexities within a creative friendship. There is a strong play within Here In America, but it would benefit from being stripped back to the essentials - less Marilyn Monroe, more Marxism. See what our critic had to say.
