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…

Review: TALK RADIO at The Players At The Barker Playhouse

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…
