Review: HAROLD AND MAUDE at Open Stage
This show is an excellent season opener for the theater. It celebrates non-comformity and an appreciation for life. Playing now through September 26th. Carpe Diem!
Photo Review: Alabama: Live In Concert
It’s the kind of story you read about in books and watch on the big screen at the movies. For the band ALABAMA, it’s not just a story; it’s their life. It’s a classic American tale of rags to riches. From humble beginnings picking cotton in the fields to international stars that went on to sell millions of albums while changing the face and sound of country music.
Photo Review: Craig Morgan
Some people know innately who they are and what they stand for. Within minutes of any interaction with Craig Morgan, it’s clear God, family, and country are his foundation. The veteran hitmaker continues to celebrate those pillars on his new EP, American Soundtrack. “I try to celebrate God, family, and country in my music and in everything I do,” the Tennessee native says. “That’s what I have always done, and I’ve come to realize it’s my platform. I don’t stress about things as much as I used to. I just try to write, sing, produce, and play the best music that we can and go where I think God wants me to be.”
Review: ANTIGONE: IN THE LANGUAGE OF KINGS at Getty Villa & Latino Theater Company
Beneath the florid poetry, the stunningly-detailed costumes, and the imagistic staging, Sophocles would instantly recognize the overarching humanity that has carried his play through the centuries.
Review: DEAR EVAN HANSEN at Cygnet Theatre
Cygnet Theatre’s 'Dear Evan Hansen' cast is terrific; the technical elements are beautifully integrated, and the emotions land exactly where they are meant to. You may or may not have some issues with the story, but Cygnet has made a production that gives audiences plenty to feel and discuss on the way home.
Review: OUR LADY OF THE SAN DIEGO CONVENTION CENTER Finds Childhood Innocence Amid the Harsh Realities of the Immigration System
Our Lady of the San Diego Convention Center is a story about immigration, about children, about faith, but above all, about San Diego.
Review: THE QUEEN'S WILL at Kumu Kahua Theatre
This show is not to be missed, and it bodes well for the remainder of Kumu Kahua’s 2026-2027 season to be starting off this strong.
Review: WONDER OF THE WORLD at Attleboro Community Theatre
Dynamic, deep, and oh so funny! After seven years of what appears to be a solid, if not happy, marriage, Cass (Anna Hindman) leaves her husband and sets on a journey or self-discovery. Armed with an undying optimism and a list of 230-something line items to check off, she takes a bus to Niagara Falls, and what might have started as an act of escapism, turns into a life-changing adventure.

Review: A BEAUTIFUL BLUE MORNING SKY at The Keegan Theatre
Besides the massive geopolitics of it all, the terror attacks also jolted individual emotions , almost to a person. We dealt as a nation with loss, felt empathy, a degree of hopelessness and a welling of national pride and determination as a way to endure and persevere.
