Broadway Show Reviews & Critics' Ratings

“How to Succeed…” remains a slick, silly, and sharply performed romp—one that knows exactly what kind of absurd world it’s skewering, and does so with a grin.

Have you ever felt alone in a crowded room? You’re surrounded by people, yet you’re truly by yourself. That’s how Bella Baird, a creative writing teacher at Yale, lives her life. She has hundreds of students, but no friends, no family, no one she can count on. Michael Stevenson directs a compelling take on Adam Rapp’s The Sound Inside, a haunting look at connection, intimacy, and restraint that stretches the audience’s imagination and trusts us to embrace unsettling ambiguity.

Never underestimate the power of hiring the full orchestra

'The Last Match' by Anna Ziegler centers on U.S. Open semifinalists Tim Porter and Sergei Sergeyev, and their partners, blending onstage action with flashbacks and fourth-wall narration. The play explores ambition, love, and the personal cost of success.

A sharp, silly and fearless comedy ride where smart political satire meets mischievous puppets and riotous audience interaction.

The city of Memphis is 63% African American. The nation’s first Black newspaper began here under the leadership of Ida B. Wells. The 1968 Sanitation Workers’ Strike brought Martin Luther King Jr. to this city, leading to his assassination and dramatically accelerating the national civil rights movement.

Deathtrap is a two-act stage play by Ira Levin (The Stepford Wives & Rosemary’s Baby) that premiered on Broadway in 1978 at the Music Box Theatre under the direction of Robert Moore. It holds the record as the longest-running comedy-thriller on Broadway, and Tony nominations for Best Play, Best Actor (Victor Garber), and Best Direction (Robert Moore).

Goodman Theatre continues its centennial season with the endearing and lively romantic comedy HOLIDAY.

After a weather delay that pushed opening night back by a week, YOU’RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN finally arrived at North Little Rock High School Performing Arts Center from February 5–8, and it was well worth the wait.

Georgetown Palace’s The Mountaintop skips the monument and gives us the man. A powerful reminder that history isn’t made by saints, but by people who keep walking anyway.

El potente unipersonal de Suzie Miller, interpretado por Regina Blandón, regresa al Foro Cultural Chapultepec para una nueva temporada del 13 de febrero al 8 de marzo.

The re-imagined production of 'Come From Away' is now on stage at Paper Mill Playhouse through Sunday, March 1. The production, ingeniously directed and choreographed by Richard J. Hinds, features actors playing musical instruments live onstage

Wildly surprising and deliciously savage, Yasmina Reza's machete-edged 2006 dark comedy GOD OF CARNAGE—here directed by Marco Barricelli and continues performances at OC's South Coast Repertory through March 21, 2026—has to be one of the most ferocious dissections of modern-day performative civility ever to grace the stage—an 80-minute, intermission-less pressure cooker that gleefully burns away the polite veneer of bourgeois adulthood to reveal the petulant, immature children actually lurking just beneath. Boosted by a foursome of terrific actors, the play endures as entertainingly voyeuristic in its unsettling relatability. SCR's outstanding production is a brilliantly observed theatrical skirmish—equal parts comedy of manners and psychological boxing match with no clear winners or losers.

The opening tableau of Miles sticks in the mind: a man writhes atop a piano, as though something long-dormant within him is being woken up. Similar sequence recur throughout the show, conveying a man both at one with his music and at war with it.

What did our critic think of GUTENBERG: THE MUSICAL at TheatreZone?

The cast of John Doe don't know they're in a play about the effects and impacts of death on survivors; they're all in “just keep living” mode, and, thanks to Angelle Whavers (wise playwright), their experiences form a kind of map of getting through stuff.

What did our critic think of MACBETH at Guthrie Theater?

South Coast Repertory’s production of Edward Albee’s dark psychological comedy 100% embodies all the epic frustration and athletic dysfunction which begins and ends with Martha. 

On 2/2, Patti LuPone celebrated the 25th anniversary of her moving concert, all about love, at Carnegie Hall, warming the frigid NYC winter night with her simple message that love does have the power to change the world

Audience members who enjoy Shakespeare but are looking for a new take on his classic stories, or those who have struggled with Shakespeare in the past, will enjoy THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR. This trailer-park take on the play is full of fun performances and laugh-worthy moments.
