Abingdon Theatre Company isn't one to shy away from grandiosity. Sure, the 26-year-old grassroots theatre company may pride itself on its daring, intimate productions, but that doesn't mean they don't know how to throw a party, repeatedly pulling out all the stops at their annual anniversary bash. "We're able to take something small - say, a show with a seven or eight-member cast - and transform it into this big, lavish spectacle… without sacrificing the true heart of the story or the music or any of that," says company Associate Artistic Director Chad Austin. "You could say it's our special little Abingdon touch." One look at last year's flashy, brassy And the World Goes 'Round gala event, which capped off a quarter century on the off-Broadway scene, and you're sure to agree. That's likely why it comes as no surprise that this year finds them back at the Edison Ballroom ringing in #26 with a(nother) glam and glitzy extravaganza like only they can produce.

DOCTOR WHO Season 11 is off to a shaky start. Despite Jodie Whittaker (the 13th and first female Doctor) and her merry band of ethnically-diverse traveling companions, the first episode was trite and sloppy. Let's hope she isn't struck off the register as George Lazenby was for his one-and-done portrayal of James Bond. #DoctorWho #SpoilerAlert
