It’s a Wonderful Way to Celebrate the Season.

Rec Room Arts has delivered at least the first half of a miracle. This is something that feels less like a revival and more like a call to arms, and Kushner’s words echo louder and more forcefully than ever. 

The Brian Clemens Jazz Orchestra brings the music of Hollywood’s golden age to theatres across the UK in a brand-new production, Songs from the Silver Screen opening at London’s Bush Hall on 01 August and touring until July 2026.

LET.HER.RIP. is the show to see this summer! It will be one we will refer back to again and again. Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, Mary Jane Kelly, and the Matchstick Women would be proud.

With expert direction, brilliant acting, and masterly design elements, Rec Room Arts latest outing of Danny Tejera's Toros is a production that will leave Houston audiences with complicated emotions about this coming-of-age story. While Tejera's work is a dramedy, Rec Room Arts decision to delve into this story, with its themes of toxic masculinity, the transition into adulthood, and the complexities of friendship, is a genius one.

Rec Room Arts has announced the regional premiere of TOROS, a provocative new play by Spanish-American playwright Danny Tejera, directed by Lily Wolff (Hurricane Diane, Wolf Play).

And what of Wesley Whitson as Hamlet, perhaps the most challenging role in the entire canon of Shakespeare’s works? He is age-appropriate and fiercely dives into the madness for the first two-thirds, and then becomes steely and predatory for the final acts.

Rec Room Arts will present a reimagining of DEATH OF A SALESMAN, Arthur Miller’s seminal work and one of the most influential plays in American history.

4th Wall Theatre's production of Suzan-Lori Parks' Topdog/Underdog is a powerful, riveting exploration of family, survival, and identity that solidifies the company's reputation for bringing bold, intimate theater to life. Directed with precision and insight by Aaron Brown, this Pulitzer Prize-winning play finds new resonance in a production that balances sharp humor with gut-wrenching drama.

Rec Room Arts announced the start of performances for their holiday production, WINTER SOLSTICE. The show promises a captivating experience for audiences at the Rec Room theater.

BETRAYAL is everything you want from a REC ROOM production. It is thoughtful, well-acted, and designed especially for a small space. Sophia Watt and her company drive home the conflicts and the feelings of confusion and loss when an affair falls apart messily and mercilessly.

Intimacy is one of STAGES THEATRE’s core values. And they should point to this anytime they want to proclaim proof of it. You can’t do this in a larger space. Nobody else in town could pull this off. It is a prime example of what this company does best.

Rec Room Arts has announced the opening of a revival production of Harold Pinter's BETRAYAL, directed by Sophia Watt (Heroes of the Fourth Turning, Dance Nation).

Main Street Theater (MST) is producing the world premiere of Stagolee and the Funeral of a Dangerous Word by nationally-acclaimed Houston playwright, Thomas Meloncon.
