Review Roundup: THE KING'S CRITIQUE Opens Off-Broadway

Review Roundup: THE KING'S CRITIQUE Opens Off-Broadway

Nicole Rosky • November 13, 2026

The new musical comedy The King's Critique has officially opened at the Romulus Linney Courtyard Theatre at The Pershing Square Signature Center. The King's Critique is a delightful, demented, wholly original musical from Nat Zegree and Eric Holmes that's more infectious than the plague and more fun than a magnificent ship full of gay men and Patti LuPone. Check out what the critiques are saying about the new musical...

Review: A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS at The Kleberg At Zach

Review: A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS at The Kleberg At Zach

Austin: Sabrina Wallace • November 14, 2026

Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang return in ZACH Theatre's charming holiday production. With a talented young cast, playful choreography, and a scene-stealing Snoopy, this 40-minute Christmas classic brings laughs for children and adults alike.

Review: SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES at Different Stages At The VORTEX

Review: SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES at Different Stages At The VORTEX

Austin: Sabrina Wallace • November 14, 2026

Different Stages transforms The VORTEX into Ray Bradbury's mysterious carnival in Something Wicked This Way Comes. With clever puppetry, beautiful Tim Burton-esque projections, and engaging performances, this dark fantasy is a visual treat. A must-see for Bradbury lovers... Actually, I stand corrected. A must-see. Period.

Review: THE LION THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE at Gamut Theatre

Review: THE LION THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE at Gamut Theatre

Central Pennsylvania: Andrea Stephenson • November 14, 2026

The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe at Gamut Theatre is the perfect production for the holiday season. It is a show filled with delightful performances combined perfectly with beautiful and effective technical and artistic elements.

Review: WHAT A GLORIOUS FEELING at Denver Center For The Performing Arts

Review: WHAT A GLORIOUS FEELING at Denver Center For The Performing Arts

Colorado: Tessa Nelson • November 14, 2026

The Denver Center's What a Glorious Feeling offers an up-close celebration of the spectacular dancing behind Singin' in the Rain. But while the musical numbers are a delight, a repetitive backstage love triangle and thinly drawn characters leave the drama struggling to keep pace with the choreography.

Review: THE CURIOUS SAVAGE at City Theatre Austin

Review: THE CURIOUS SAVAGE at City Theatre Austin

Austin: Sabrina Wallace • November 14, 2026

City Theatre Austin's The Curious Savage brings warmth, humor, and heart to John Patrick's classic comedy. With an engaging ensemble and a touching story, the production explores kindness, compassion, and the importance of finding people who accept us for who we are.

CORK 2026: Review: DISCO PIGS, The Everyman

CORK 2026: Review: DISCO PIGS, The Everyman

Ireland: Adi Ajzenstadt • November 14, 2026

Enda Walsh returns to Cork thirty years after the premiere of Disco Pigs with a kinetic, deeply felt staging that sweeps you straight into the chase even when its thick local vernacular slips past the ear.

Review: NY Phil and Dudamel Bring Puccini’s “Shabby Little Shocker” - TOSC

Review: NY Phil and Dudamel Bring Puccini’s “Shabby Little Shocker” - TOSCA - to Carnegie

Opera: Richard Sasanow • November 14, 2026

Post-US elections, it’s a timely weekend for this tale of corruption, persecution, love and #metoo politics to make it to Carnegie Hall. Featuring the return of Jonas Kaufmann, a favorite tenor—and notorious no-show in New York—this concert performance of TOSCA by the New York Philharmonic under music director Gustavo Dudamel, also had an alluring Tosca in Marina Rebeka and a fearsome Scarpia (the police chief) in Ludovic Tezier.

Review: THE TORONTO BURLESQUE FESTIVAL at Buddies In Bad Times Theatre

Review: THE TORONTO BURLESQUE FESTIVAL at Buddies In Bad Times Theatre

Toronto: Samantha Wu • November 14, 2026

Review: PASSING STRANGE at Pasadena Playhouse

Review: PASSING STRANGE at Pasadena Playhouse

Los Angeles: Evan Henerson • November 13, 2026

In its L.A. premiere, the Playhouse’s production is a super-charged evening of sex, drugs and introspection and discovery, not particularly in that order.

Review: THE 39 STEPS at Laguna Playhouse

Review: THE 39 STEPS at Laguna Playhouse

Los Angeles: Michael Quintos • November 13, 2026

Directed by Tony Award nominated Broadway vet Hunter Foster, Laguna Playhouse's laugh-filled revisit of the comedic play that offers a cheeky, irreverent skewering of Alfred Hitchcock's spy thriller classic onstage can, for the most part, feel like they're witnessing an eccentric troupe of very talented actors trying to pull off the most elaborate magic tricks while also gleefully letting you observe exactly how these tricks are performed. The production continues through November 22, 2026.

Review: THE SORCERESS at Kinneksbond

Review: THE SORCERESS at Kinneksbond

Luxembourg: David Sousa Lopes • November 13, 2026

BroadwayWorld had the pleasure of attending The Sorceress, an original musical by Pirate Productions, at the Kinneksbond center in Mamer. And, as we’ve come to expect from this esteemed company, the show absolutely delivered.
