Dracula is at it again in this delightfully zany production!
Review: RIVERDANCE at Broadway In Tucson
RIVERDANCE has a limited engagement at Centennial Hall through April 30.
Review: HELL'S KITCHEN at ASU Gammage
HELL’S KITCHEN leaves you with the sensation that at the very least Alicia Keys has done something instinctively theatrical: she’s turned the noise of her youth into music, and the city that raised her into a stage big enough to contain it.
Review: MAZEL at Theatre Artists Studio
Theatre Artists Studio's production of Amy Hartman's MAZEL has ended its run, but its themes of remembering, reconciliation, and forgiveness echo beyond the stage.
Review: THE MIRACULOUS JOURNEY OF EDWARD TULANE at Childsplay
A production that reveals what the craft of theater can do when it trusts simplicity and emotion.
Review: THE ROOMMATE at Arizona Theatre Company
Silverman's dark and witty script, Mason's incisive direction, and two beautifully calibrated performances make this one of the season's more provocative and entertaining productions.

Love is one of the most wonderful parts of human existence; it is beautiful, but one of the hardest things a person can experience.

This production is filled with sparkling wit and fantastic performances!
Review: THE ROOMMATE at Arizona Theatre Company
THE ROOMMATE is a clever and well-acted production.
Review: SIX at ASU Gammage
What’s more satisfying than watching six wronged women reclaim their power? Watching them do it in rhinestone corsets, backed by a thunderous girl band and enough LED lighting to short-circuit Times Square.
Review: PRETTY WOMAN: THE MUSICAL at Arizona Broadway Theatre
Stephen Casey, the director and choreographer of Arizona Broadway Theatre’s production of PRETTY WOMAN: THE MUSICAL, understands something essential about adapting a modern fairy tale, especially one rooted in a Rodeo Drive fantasy, for the stage: unless the performers anchor the story in authenti
Review: OUR AMERICAN TRAGEDY at Sunny Gingham And Banzerini House
