The most remarkable part of the show is the circus. Joining the talented singers and dancers from the Broadway stage are aerialists who swing on hoops and glide through the air on silks suspended from the ceiling. Acrobats tumble and fly across the stage, sometimes catching each other in mid-air and other times performing daring feats to create a spectacle one would expect from a circus.

Was it Mrs. Peacock in the Library with the candlestick or Colonel Mustard with the revolver in the billiards room? "Clue," based on the movie and board game, is an add-on show Nov. 7-9 for the 2025/26 Proctor & Gamble Broadway Series at the Walton Arts Center.

By the second act of "Shucked," the constant jokes harvest as many groans as giggles. All the jokes are good though. While the constant quips with a pause for laughter wore me out, the rows were still full after the second act. The crowd yukked it up until the end.

Megan McGinnis who plays Barbara Maitland in touring Broadway production of "Beetlejuice," told me point blank she cried the first time she watched the musical. While watching the musical last night at the Walton Arts Center, and feeling some intense side effects from my very recent covid and flu vaccines, I have to confess that I cried twice.
