Review: GUYS & DOLLS at Stages St. Louis is a Sure Bet

Review: GUYS & DOLLS at Stages St. Louis is a Sure Bet

St. Louis: James Lindhorst • July 30, 2026

Director James Monroe Iglehart and the entire company have built a show that is musical theater perfection. This production of Guys & Dolls could not be better.Just ask Sarah Brown at the Save-a-Soul Mission, it would be a sin to miss this heavenly production of Guys & Dolls.

Review: CYRANO at The Old Globe

Review: CYRANO at The Old Globe

San Diego: ErinMarie Reiter • July 30, 2026

Funny, charming, and quietly heartbreaking, CYRANO at The Old Globe reminds us that the greatest obstacle to love is often believing we're unworthy of it.

Review: ANASTASIA THE MUSICAL at Arts One Presents in Springdale

Review: ANASTASIA THE MUSICAL at Arts One Presents in Springdale

Arkansas: Theresa Bertram • July 30, 2026

Some community theatre productions are excellent. Others make you forget you're watching community theatre altogether. Anastasia the Musical, presented by Arts One Presents at the Pat Ellison Performing Arts Center in Springdale through Sunday, August 2, firmly belongs in that second category.

Review: HELL'S KITCHEN National Tour at Durham Performing Arts Center

Review: HELL'S KITCHEN National Tour at Durham Performing Arts Center

Raleigh: Jeffrey Kare • July 30, 2026

Inspired by the music and upbringing of Alicia Keys. Hell’s Kitchen follows Ali, a 17-year-old girl full of fire, searching for freedom, passion, and her place in the world. Along the way, we meet her dynamic family, a musical mentor who changes her life, and the neighborhood that helps her grow up.

Review: MARIANELA-TIMELESS, Royal Ballet And Opera

Review: MARIANELA-TIMELESS, Royal Ballet And Opera

Dance: Matthew Paluch • July 30, 2026

When you look at the casting of Marianela - Timeless, it seems there's been a mistake. Surely Núñez isn't actually doing four different pieces? Two being grand pas de deux and one a 35 minute dramatic ballet?

Review: IBOSS at Great Barrington Public Theatre

Review: IBOSS at Great Barrington Public Theatre

Boston: Marc Savitt • July 29, 2026

Thomas Kee's new play, iBOSS, deftly weaves themes of consciousness, sentience, technology, loss, suffering, love and need into a single, tautly constructed situation we all can relate to - an HR performance evaluation

Review: ESCAPE TO MARGARETAVILLE at Cornwell’s Turkeyville

Review: ESCAPE TO MARGARETAVILLE at Cornwell’s Turkeyville

Michigan: Brian Hilbrand • July 29, 2026

Escape to Margaretaville has been one of my bucket list shows as long as I have known they made it a musical.   I was supposed to originally see it back in 2020, when it was part of a season ticket I had to the Broadway Grand Rapids season, but ultimately it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  So imagine my excitement seeing it was coming to a theatre only a few hours away, and even better, it was going to be at a Dinner Theatre.

Review: CITY OF ANGELS at Ogunquit Playhouse

Review: CITY OF ANGELS at Ogunquit Playhouse

Maine: Dan Marois • July 29, 2026

It is hard to believe that City of Angels debuted nearly four decades ago. Born out of the late-1980s resurgence of film noir send-ups, the show demands rapid-fire lyrical precision and a swinging jazz score that balances tough-edged detective lore with a biting satire of early Hollywood. With music by Cy Coleman, lyrics by David Zippel, and a razor-sharp book by Larry Gelbart (creator of TV’s MASH*), it remains a formidable piece of musical theater.

Review: The Muny Premiere of AIN’T TOO PROUD Celebrates Legacy of The Temptati

Review: The Muny Premiere of AIN’T TOO PROUD Celebrates Legacy of The Temptations

St. Louis: James Lindhorst • July 29, 2026

The Muny’s Ain’t Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations is an example of how a jukebox musical can transcend the music into something much greater. This production, the directorial vision, the performances, and the technical execution all blend to create an engaging, historically accurate, and entertaining true-life narrative.

Review: Company One Theatre's A NEW ERA is Fresh Look at Boston History
