Is Hamlet mad or sane? Should Denmark be ruled by the melancholy Dane, or by Claudius? Ted Pappas's production bravely casts all accepted answers into uncertainty.

Alan Stanford's masterful adaptation of an often-grim Bronte novel balances melodrama with humanity, horror with levity.

The five-person, three-musician comedy is a throwback, both to the Golden Age of comic books and the absurd silliness of 1990s family comedy.

To see a show, you must rent a seat.

Even without big-name stars, 'Waitress' proves itself to be the right show at the right time.

There's a land that you've heard of, once in a lullaby.

There are some things it's hard to joke about, but the tasteful crime tragicomedy of James Lecesne's one-man show somehow holds it together.
BWW Review: Learn to See 'The Beauty Underneath' in LOVE NEVER DIES at the Benedum
Ten years after the epic conclusion of The Phantom of the Opera, we find ourselves on the shores of the Atlantic- an ocean away from the Paris Opera House where years prior Christine, Raoul, and the Phantom would meet for an explosive encounter in the lair.

Celie never knew much about a good life.
BWW Review: XANADU Does at the Pittsburgh CLO Cabaret
