Boublil and Schönberg's LES MISÉRABLES stormed back to the Keller Auditorium last night.
DEAR EVAN HANSEN, now running at Broadway Rose, is a multiple Tony Award-winning musical about an anxious, depressed, and profoundly lonely high schooler who gets swept into an extraordinary situation when a classmate named Connor Murphy dies by suicide.

What did our critic think of ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS at Twilight Theater?
ATHENA, now running at the tiny but mighty 21ten Theatre, is a keenly observed comedy about two high schoolers training for the Junior Olympics.
When seeing a new-to-me play, I typically try to walk in knowing as little as possible.
If you had told me I would cry my eyes out at a musical about a young man with green, scaly skin who only leaves his apartment once a year to go on a Grindr date, I would have given you the side eye.

How do we carry on when everything is falling apart? In YOU STUPID DARKNESS!, Sam Steiner's funny and touching dramedy now running at 21ten Theatre, four volunteers spend their Tuesday nights answering calls at Brightline, a listening service for people who need someone to tell them everything is go
For years, I'd written off THE WIZ.
I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard, or heard an entire packed audience laugh so hard.

What did our critic think of TIGER STYLE! at Profile Theatre?
In times like these laughter is not a luxury.
Portland Playhouse’s annual production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL continues to be essential holiday viewing.
Shakespeare's THE WINTER’S TALE is notoriously difficult to do well.
What did our critic think of LOUISA MAY ALCOTT'S LITTLE WOMEN at Portland Center Stage? I had forgotten that Little Women opens at Christmas until I started rereading the book in anticipation of Portland Center Stage's production of Lauren M.
