Review: GREASE at Theatre By The Sea
If the summer heat has you at wit’s end, there is no better way to stay cool than Theatre By The Sea’s stylish, energetic, remarkably entertaining production of “Grease,” the Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey musical that premiered on Broadway in 1972 and spawned the now classic 1978 movie starrin…

Just like a radio host’s shift, the show moves at lightning speed, following the conversations of Barry Champlain who is as enigmatic as he is exhausting to listen to. Nearly 40 years after the play was originally staged, the issues throughout the show still ring true today.…
Review: A FINE 'DINING ROOM' AT GRANITE THEATRE
he set immediately grabs you when you walk into the theatre: An intricately crafted dining room, set on a stage with a pronounced tilt, in front of which sits one of those little museum gallery cards in a frame: 'Dining Room. American. 20th Century.' It is immediately clear that director and set des…
Review: Kimberly Akimbo at Providence Performing Arts Center
At it’s most basic, Kimberly Akimbo tells the story of a sixteen-year-old girl who has a chromosomal disorder that makes her age rapidly. While that’s already an interesting premise, this musical goes much further than a typical ‘issues’ play and creates something wholly unexpected and qui…
