by Caitlin Howle - June 05, 2026

What did our critic think of TRINITY REP'S NEXT TO NORMAL at Trinity Rep?...

Review: CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF at The Gamm Theatre


by Caitlin Howle - June 01, 2026

As I am writing this for the Rhode Island section of Broadway World, I feel as though I am uniquely equipped to talk about Tennessee Williams, or at least the world that so often lives inside his work, being that I am a Southerner who has now spent roughly thirteen years in New England....

Review: GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY at Wilbury Theatre Group


by Jay Pateakos - May 30, 2026

The Wilbury Theatre Group wrapped up it's 2025-2026 season with Conor McPherson's Tony-nominated stylistic musical 'Girl From The North Country'.

Review: THE LION KING at Providence Performing Arts Center


by Andria Tieman - May 22, 2026

The Lion King swept the Tony awards when it was on Broadway, and even for this semi-skeptical theatre reviewer, it’s easy to see why.  It seems impossible to translate a cartoon about the lives of animals into a stage production performed by people, or at least, it seems like it will be corny.  ...

Review: TALK RADIO at The Players At The Barker Playhouse


by Yuliya Pokhylko - May 10, 2026

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


by John McDaid - May 08, 2026

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


by Andria Tieman - May 07, 2026

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...

Review: HIEROGLYPHICS CURRENCY at Daydream Theatre Company


by Christopher Verleger - May 05, 2026

Nowadays when you tune in to watch the news or read the latest headline in your social media feed, it’s difficult to differentiate between fact and fiction. Furthermore, there is no middle ground, and everything is described as a superlative—like the “least” effective or the “most” offen...

Review: EDGES at Reverie Theatre Group


by Christopher Verleger - April 24, 2026

Reverie Theatre Group presents ‘Edges,’ a funny, thoughtful, highly entertaining four-person song cycle, with no spoken dialogue or discernible plot, that explores the challenges of young adults, including family dynamics, career opportunities, and most significantly, the trials and tribulations...
