At heart, theatre is simply one group of people in a room trying to connect to another group of people in that same room. All around Louisville and the surrounding areas, this sacred exchange is taking place; in venues large and small, with extravagant production values or with the barest minimum of sets and costumes, executed by trained professionals or by amateurs driven by passion to devote long hours to it for little or no pay - it is ALL theatre. It is ALL theatre worth celebrating. - Arts-Louisville Managing Editor Keith Waits in his opening remarks.

'Take a Shot' with Buck Creek Players as we continue our 42nd season of quality theatre with Bert V. Royal's DOG SEES GOD: CONFESSIONS OF A TEENAGE BLOCKHEAD. Opening on Friday, March 18th, and continuing for two weekends through Saturday, March 26th, curtain times are at 8PM on Friday and Saturday, with a 2:30PM matinee on Sunday, March 20th, and an 8PM performance on Thursday, March 24th. 

Starting tonight, February 2, Andre Ward (Rock of Ages, Xanadu) will assume the roles of 'Minstrel / Snug' in the ten-time Tony Award-nominated musical comedy SOMETHING ROTTEN! at The St. James Theatre.

Theatre Novi Most presents the iconic Russian classic by Anton Chekhov about love, art and the power and meaning of symbols, The Seagull. Staged by Russian director and Novi Most co-artistic director, Vladimir Rovinsky, this production disengages the play from the cliche?s of samovars, corsets, and the 'mysterious Russian soul' and instead addresses our contemporary world of disconnection and the desperate longing for love that is our seething, vibrating underbelly. In this existential and darkly humorous mediation on the stakes of living life and making art, Theatre Novi Most reminds us that Chekhov is supremely one of us.

Something Rotten! welcomes David Beach (It's Only a Play, Fish in the Dark, Mamma Mia!) as 'Brother Jeremiah' in the ten-time Tony Award-nominated musical comedy beginning tonight, January 15 at The St. James Theatre.
