Review: THE MOUSETRAP at Mask & Mirror


by Dawn Sellers - March 03, 2026

Review: ANGRY, RAUCOUS, AND SHAMELESSLY GORGEOUS at Portland Playhouse


by Krista Garver - February 19, 2026

Portland Playhouse is not known for playing it safe, so it's fitting that their latest production centers on a woman, Anna Campbell, who built her entire legend on one audacious act. ...

Review: GEOGRAPHY OF A HORSE DREAMER at Imago Theatre

Review: THE BODY'S MIDNIGHT at 100 Lives Repertory


by Krista Garver - February 11, 2026

It took about 10 seconds for tears to well up in my eyes during the opening monologue of THE BODY'S MIDNIGHT. They stayed there, occasionally spilling over, for the rest of Tira Palmquist's exquisite play. This show is just the second production by 100 Lives Repertory, but it firmly establishes them...

Review: THE WIZ at Keller Auditorium


by Krista Garver - February 04, 2026

For years, I'd written off THE WIZ. My only prior experience with the show had been a disappointing production that left me confused about why the original had swept the Tony Awards in 1975, winning Best Musical and Best Original Score among other honors. ...

Review: THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG at Portland Center Stage


by Krista Garver - January 29, 2026

I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard, or heard an entire packed audience laugh so hard. In a world that feels very heavy, Portland Center Stage's production of THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG offers something we desperately need: two hours of pure, unrelenting fun....

Review: IN CLAY at Broadway Rose


by Krista Garver - January 29, 2026

There aren't many full-length one-person musicals, which makes IN CLAY particularly intriguing even before you discover how exquisite it is. This fairly new musical by Jack Miles and Rebecca Simmonds excavates the true story of Marie-Berthe Cazin, a French painter and sculptor in the late 19th and e...
