Review: SAN DIEGO OPERA'S PAGLIACCI at San Diego Civic Theater


by Ron Bierman - November 06, 2025

San Diego Opera opened its 2025-26 season on a Halloween night with an appropriately disturbing opera about a murderous clown.

Review: VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE at Cygnet Theatre


by ErinMarie Reiter - October 16, 2025

Christopher Durang’s “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” is a riotous blend of sibling rivalry, absurdist farce, and Chekhovian melancholy.  A laugh-out-loud farce with real heart, Director Anthony Methvin finds balance in the absurdity while still landing the emotional punches....
