Review: THE KAT & DAVE SHOW: AN EVENING WITH DAVID FOSTER & KATHARINE MCPHEE at Providence Performing Arts Center
by Jay Pateakos - December 06, 2022
It was one of those shows that you did not quite know what to expect. Being an 80's kid, I knew the mastery of David Foster, mostly from my infatuation with Chicago, but didn't know if this show with singer-songwriter and wife Katharine McPhee would be more of a hit concert redux or a Christmas show or something completely different. It proved to be a wonderful mix of all.

Review: SENSE & SENSIBILITY at Burbage Theatre Company
by Jay Pateakos - November 22, 2022
What did our critic think of SENSE & SENSIBILITY at Burbage Theatre Company? When it comes to Jane Austen, it's typically a love-hate relationship.
