Psycho Clan and ETR Ventures' latest immersive horror venture, 'Nightmare Dollhouse,' is chilling, to say the least. With twenty-one seasons under their belt, it's safe to say they know a thing or two about delivering spine-tingling thrills. What sets this venture apart is its unique concept. While haunted houses often feature the expected blood, gore, monsters, and zombies, I've never encountered one 'inspired by the weirdest and scariest roadside oddities.'

Sophocles Antigone undergoes no less pleasant a fate in this excellent production. How lucky was I this Friday the 13th? Much more so than Sophocles’ ANTIGONE.

On the immediate surface, QUIXOTE NUEVO is a feast for the senses. On a deeper level, the play explores relevant issues, particularly those affecting the Latinx community. Sandwiched in between, however, is a distracting use of sophomoric humor that slightly threatens to counter all of the good messaging the play attempts to push forward.

 “Het is al jaren een grote wens van ons bedrijf om een muziektheaterproductie over het fascinerende leven van Josephine Baker te brengen,” laat creatief producent Hans Cornelissen weten. “Zij is nog altijd ‘s werelds bekendste revuester. Al in 2016 hadden we vergevorderde plannen voor een voorstelling over Josephine Baker. Maar omdat toen ook de plannen voor onze musical over Liesbeth List opeens concreet werden, zagen we ervan af. Vorig jaar kregen we een vernieuwd script in handen. Dat was vrijwel gelijk met de repetities voor Les Misérables, waarin Channah Hewitt de rol van Fantine speelt. Toen viel alles samen. In Channah hebben we ‘onze’ Josephine Baker gevonden.”
