Review Roundup: Did CATS in London Make The Critics Purr With Delight?

Review Roundup: Did CATS in London Make The Critics Purr With Delight?

Aliya Al-Hassan • August 7, 2026

There's no better way to introduce your family to the wonders of live theatre than with the magic, the mystery, the memory of Cats. What began as a musical about cats after Andrew Lloyd Webber picked up a book of poems in an airport bookshop has become one of the longest running shows in Broadway's history. Winner of seven Tony Awards including Best Musical, Cats features 20 of Andrew Lloyd Webber's timeless melodies, including the hit song 'Memory.' What did the critics think of Drew McOnie's new production?

Review: THE NOTEBOOK Transcends Trite Melodrama

Review: THE NOTEBOOK Transcends Trite Melodrama

Philippines: Oliver Oliveros • September 7, 2026

When American novelist Nicholas Sparks released 'The Notebook' in 1996, it had enamored many romance fiction fans through its saccharine love story of Noah and Allie—a literally rain-soaked melodrama driven by a one-summer romance in South Carolina in the ‘60s (based on the musical's book) and a fateful separation brought about by meddling parents.

Review: JOB at Q Theatre

Review: JOB at Q Theatre

New Zealand: Monica Moore • September 6, 2026

Silo Theatre’s Auckland production of Job, playing at Q Theatre’s Loft, is a superb rendering of the Broadway hit — a two-hander that earns every ounce of its reputation. Walking in tired on opening night, I fully expected to coast through the evening. Instead, I found myself pinned to my seat, unwilling to miss a beat of this psychological thriller. The sheer ingenuity of the writing keeps you leaning in, compelled and ‘thinkingly’ disoriented in equal measure, with no real sense of where the story is headed until it’s already arrived. NOTE R16 Rating: coarse language and references to distressing adult themes, along with the use of a weapon on stage, loud sound effects, haze, and bright and strobe lighting.

Review: MRS DOUBTFIRE at Östgötateatern

Review: MRS DOUBTFIRE at Östgötateatern

Sweden: Annette Stolt • September 6, 2026

There is no doubt that Östgötateatern’s production of *Mrs. Doubtfire* will be loved just as much as the movie. Funny, heartwarming, and touching. A wonderful family musical. As the curtain falls, I have a happy tear in the corner of my eye and a big smile on my face.

Review: COME FROM AWAY at Roxy's Downtown

Review: COME FROM AWAY at Roxy's Downtown

Wichita: Paula Makar • September 5, 2026

Come From Away is the musical we need right now. As political tensions mount, we need to remember the kindness shown by our neighbor Canada during a most critical time for our United States. Director Rick Bumgardner tells us the “spine” of this show is the word “Goodwill.” We would do well to remember the lessons of 9/11, as well as the Golden Rule - Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Review: COME FROM AWAY at Theatre Harrisburg

Review: COME FROM AWAY at Theatre Harrisburg

Central Pennsylvania: Andrea Stephenson • September 5, 2026

This is a production that will make you laugh and cry, that reminds us of both the worst parts of being human and the best most inspiring parts of being human. Come From Away at Theatre Harrisburg is a show you do not want to miss.

Review: THE THANKSGIVING PLAY at Ephrata Performing Arts Center

Review: THE THANKSGIVING PLAY at Ephrata Performing Arts Center

Central Pennsylvania: Rich Mehrenberg • September 5, 2026

Director, Ben Galosi keeps the laughs coming in this 90 minute intermission-free show.  The humor is derived not only from the characters’ excessively bleeding hearts, but also hilariously random moments of aggressive chaos and mayhem.  A special salute to the EPAC stage crew who have a lot of cleaning up to do at the conclusion of each performance.

Review: COLLECTIVE RAGE at MILDRED'S UMBRELLA

Review: COLLECTIVE RAGE at MILDRED'S UMBRELLA

Houston: Brett Cullum • September 5, 2026

I never thought I would have such a good time watching five women talk about their sexual organs, but I absolutely understood every moment as if I had been lucky enough to have been assigned female at birth.

Review: READY TAE DRAP, Oran Mor

Review: READY TAE DRAP, Oran Mor

Scotland: Natalie O'Donoghue • September 5, 2026

A rabbit, a refugee and a racist get stuck in a lift... That sounds like the start of a bad joke but for high rise residents Lauren, Aaliyah and Pat, it’s a night they’ll never forget.
