ROCKLAND / WESTCHESTER THEATER REVIEWS

NEXT TO NORMAL at Elmwood Playhouse, Nyack, N.Y. -- a great success!...

...

I had the pleasure of seeing'Rent' a few weeks ago, presented by the Little Radical Theatrics in Yonkers, NY.  This particular production commemorated the 20th anniversary of the Broadway production of Rent and truly demonstrated that the subject matter is as relevant today as it was in 1996....

Happy Days was an iconic show in the mid "70's and early "80's that completely powered the ABC Television lineup....

I LOVE YOU, YOU'RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE! at White Plains Performing Arts Center, is a hit!...

“Man of La Mancha” opened at Westchester Broadway Theatre in the usual grand way. It is certainly exciting to have a robust Cervantes/Don Quixote and silver voiced Aldonza/Dulcinea, but the production, itself needs to iron out some kinks....

Going to the Theatre, for me, can do one of two things: educate me and enthrall me, or elevate me to an outer-worldly experience....

Always...Patsy Cline made its debut at Westchester Broadway Theatre last week and will play until February 28th.  This jukebox type of musical tells the story of Patsy Cline's poignant relationship in the early stages of her career with a devoted fan by the name of Louise Seger....

It's twelve years later, Tim is not so 'tiny' and Scrooge is not so curmudgeonly - so all's well in the Cratchit world, right? Ah, if only it was that easy!...

Elmwood's new production of GOOD PEOPLE is a wonderful evening of provocative questions about our class system, about the role that luck plays in our successes, and ultimately how much choice we all really have in our lives....

A show about the two guys that started AA? That sounds like fun - right? Actually it is a lot more fun than one might expect. Shades Repertory Theater has a winner on its hands....

I had the honor of seeing 'Next to Normal' with my daughter Madeleine at the Three Act Theatre Company.. Her first time seeing it, my gazillionth....

First of all, there is the score. Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein II composed an operatic masterpiece with legitimate melodies and glorious orchestrations. Listening to the score brings one back to a time when singers were sang without the luxury of a microphone and where the action alternated b...

BWW Reviews: BOEING BOEING at ANTRIM PLAYHOUSE...

Something very intimate is going on at WPPAC that is truly encouraging to the theatre community of Westchester; a grown up musical that enables some local staples of the Westchester community to really cut loose....

...

Even before the first act of Godspell began, the energy was palpable in the room. I do not think I have seen a more packed audience at Westchester Broadway Theatre in quite a while; especially since most of the shows presented there are more conventional....

Disney and Stravinsky clash over Fantasia!...

One of the greatest shows in the history of American musical theatre, West Side Story, has made a triumphant return at The Westchester Broadway Theatre....

'Chinese Coffee' by Ira Lewis is a very idiosyncratic play that has been an actor's favorite since its debut 25 years ago. Al Pacino has championed the piece both on Broadway and in a film which he produced, directed and starred in. The current presentation at The Nyack Village is a real gem and sho...

Once again, White Plains Performing Arts Center has staged an inspired production....
