Review: CATS at Arizona Broadway Theatre


by Herbert Paine - June 15, 2026

ABT’s cast is gangbusters. Try to imagine T. S. Eliot's prim little book of poems getting high—not on catnip, but on theatrical glitter—and deciding to stage a feverish feline dream with help from Andrew Lloyd Webber. And there you have it. That's CATS.  ...

Review: THE WIZARD OF OZ at Hale Centre Theatre


by Cheyenne Lewis - May 19, 2026

Nearly 90 years after the film premiered and over 120 years since the novel was published, this great American fairytale is a story to love. This rendition of the musical is great for people both young and old. There’s no place to see THE WIZARD OF OZ like Hale Centre Theatre....

Review: OUTSIDE MULLINGAR at Theatre Artists Studio


by Herbert Paine - May 18, 2026

There are productions that succeed because the script is strong, and productions that succeed because performers manage to elevate familiar material. Theatre Artists Studio’s production of John Patrick Shanley’s OUTSIDE MULLINGAR achieves something rarer: a complete unity of tone, performance, l...
