Review: FEEL GOOD, Òran Mór

Review: FEEL GOOD, Òran Mór

Scotland: Natalie O'Donoghue • September 20, 2026

Henry never expected his first girlfriend, Liz, to turn up at his flat. Especially not as a sex robot.

Review: LA TRAVIATA at Four Seasons Centre For The Performing Arts

Review: LA TRAVIATA at Four Seasons Centre For The Performing Arts

Toronto: Keira Grant • September 20, 2026

Canadian Opera Company’s season opener La Traviata pulls out all the stops and sets an extremely high bar for the rest of its 26-27 offerings. My companion has been coming to the opera with me for many years, and she was blown away, proclaiming this as one of her all-time faves. “A triumph,” she said, and I couldn’t agree more.

Review: A CHORUS LINE at The 5th Avenue Theatre

Review: A CHORUS LINE at The 5th Avenue Theatre

Seattle: Jay Irwin • September 19, 2026

Dear Readers, I don’t mean to make anyone feel ancient but “A Chorus Line” is 51 years old! And the 5th Avenue Theatre dusting off the old girl for their current remount may feel like a bit of nostalgia. But if their spectacular production proves anything, it’s that “A Chorus Line” is still the masterpiece it always was.

Gunhild Carling at City Winery – One Dazzling Surprise After Another

Gunhild Carling at City Winery – One Dazzling Surprise After Another

Cabaret: Stephen Sorokoff • September 19, 2026

Like a magician who somehow keeps producing one dazzling surprise after another, musician extraordinaire Gunhild Carling had the audience on the edge of its seat as her jazz/pop music and showmanship delivered one thrilling song after another

Review: THE FABLE FESTIVAL AND MOTHER GOOSED at DreamWrights

Review: THE FABLE FESTIVAL AND MOTHER GOOSED at DreamWrights

Central Pennsylvania: Sandra Harberger • September 19, 2026

DreamWrights presents a double feature with The Fable Festival and Mother Goosed on stage from September 18th to 27th under the direction of Hannah Kuhn. The Fable Festival and Mother Goosed is filled with animals and nursery rhymes gone wrong. It is perfect for families with children. It’s also an excellent opportunity to support local playwrights. Congratulations to the winners of Dreamwrights’ Fable Festival!

Review: JOHN & JEN at La Grange at Bruxellons!

Review: JOHN & JEN at La Grange at Bruxellons!

France: Patrick Honoré • September 19, 2026

Tucked into La Grange's intimate corner of Bruxellons, Andrew Lippa's near-sung-through two-hander proves a musical can carry real psychological weight.

Review: THE LAST SHOW ON EARTH at ERA

Review: THE LAST SHOW ON EARTH at ERA

St. Louis: Steve Callahan • September 19, 2026

A profound and hilarious scattershot examination of AI and the end of the universe. Invigorating! Rejuvenating! Don't miss it!

Review: BEGIN AGAIN at The Old Globe

Review: BEGIN AGAIN at The Old Globe

San Diego: ErinMarie Reiter • September 19, 2026

'Begin Again' at the new musical The Old Globe has plenty of heart, terrific performances, and a theatrical imagination that makes making music feel almost tangible.

Review: BRIGHT STAR Shines at Lincoln Theatre Company

Review: BRIGHT STAR Shines at Lincoln Theatre Company

Sacramento: Courtney Symes • September 19, 2026

Some musicals sweep us away with their original story, while others win us over with their heart. Bright Star falls into the latter category. Written by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, it tells a story of love, loss, and happiness after tragedy through bluegrass music with plenty of Southern charm.
