What did our critic think of HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARS ROVER at Sandbox Theatre Collective?
Review: Even if you leave wanting a few more cannon blasts from Theatricum Botanicum's 2026 adaptation of TREASURE ISLAND, you'll be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful place to spend a summer evening.
Xian’s performance was a joyful representation of Schiller’s text, ending the rousing evening with an affirmation of much-needed hope for us all. The performance was transcendent in every way.
It was lovely to see, and hear, Chris Barrett, a singer-pianist with flair and nostalgia, at Pangea. The performer got a warm welcome from loyal fans and new ones on May 15

On March 14, 2026, Indonesian Musical Company’s Winter Class staged MET LIEFDE – DR. VENESSA. Held in Gedung Kesenian Miss Tjitjih, this production served as a showcase of everything the students had learned: acting, dancing, and theater tech. Being a backstory for one of the characters in one of their previous shows, LEGACY, this show was written by Bryan Edward and directed by Cornelius Kenta Raya. The team from Broadwayworld Indonesia came to watch the first show, and here’s our review.
Director Glenn Kelman is to be commended for taking on the challenge of coordinating twenty cast members moving scenery and set pieces into place to create 22 set changes in 14 locations on such a small stage, as well as setting the timing of each Ameri-News video projection to forward the story. And to Music Director Jared Scott for doing his best to get so many non-singers to harmonize on-key, and Choreographer Kylie Christensen for diligently doing her best to mold what should be a big musical production into a space better suited for a small cast play.

“Broadway in the Park” a simple celebration of choice musical selections headlined by incandescent Broadway stars Heather Headley and Tituss Burgess.
It is only fitting, then, that Break a Leg Legally should deliver a production that feels so profoundly inclusive, energetic, and thoroughly joyful in The Strand theater in Dover.
What did our critic think of ANNIE at Greater Boston Stage Company?
There’s a specific kind of grand-scale theatrical magic that few modern shows can pull off. It requires massive energy and an absolute refusal to skimp on the spectacle. That old-school Broadway splendor is alive at the Ogunquit Playhouse.
What did our critic think of MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG at Sullivan Rep?
With sharp timing, genuine chemistry, and a standout youth ensemble, the VST’s revival of Bye Bye Birdie is a masterclass in poise and preparation; running at the Virginia Samford Theatre through June 28.
For anyone who grew up in the 2000s, the music of Ne-Yo and Akon formed part of the soundtrack to an entire generation. On June 17, the two hitmakers brought their co-headlining NIGHTS LIKE THIS tour to Rogers Arena, launching the North American leg of the 57-city world tour in Vancouver, BC. Built around nostalgia and packed with songs that dominated radio, clubs, and playlists throughout the mid-2000s, NIGHTS LIKE THIS reunited two artists whose catalogs have remained staples for more than two decades. Throughout the evening, Ne-Yo and Akon traded the spotlight while revisiting the hits that helped establish them as two of the most recognizable voices of their generation.
With Edwards and Davis, a night out combines fine entertainment with a side of education - but no quizzes!
This high-spirited golden age musical comedy wowed Wichita audiences
Casting high school aged teen-agers can be a trickier needle to thread than one might think. Two actors who are still in high school wrestling down the spectrum of emotions, growth journeys and heartbreak of Shakespeare’s tale is no small achievement. Asher Hagler and Quinnlyn Scheppner make their marks; they are charismatic, genuine and, yes, also very young.
What did our critic think of SONS OF VAO at ASB Waterfront Theatre?
This dazzling production, a feast for the eyes and ears, runs through June 28 at the Kennedy Center. The show delivers a fun, nostalgic and moving experience.
