by Courtney Symes - August 13, 2025
The beginning of August means the start of spooky season, and what better way to celebrate than with the most famous undead of all?

Review: Something's Coming...WEST SIDE STORY at Broadway At Music Circus
by Courtney Symes - July 13, 2025
Life can be bright in America! Well, according to Stephen Sondheim, who wrote the lyrics to accompany Leonard Bernstein’s soaring score in the classic favorite, West Side Story.

Review: THE GUY WHO DIDN'T LIKE MUSICALS at The Stage At Burke Junction
by Courtney Symes - July 12, 2025
Neely Hebert, the talented young lady featured in last year’s Student Spotlight, has returned to Sacramento for the summer to produce and direct another passion project. She’s at the helm of a driven group of students: all exceptional, all energetic, and all brimming with joy to be a part of this campy show.  The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals, written by Nick and Matt Lang with music and lyrics by Jeff Blim, isn’t thought-provoking or deep. It is, however, a great way to lose yourself for a couple of hours to pure zaniness.
