by Jerri Shafer - Mar 27, 2026


Join MVNU Theatre for Big Fish, a sweeping, magical, and deeply heartfelt story about love, memory, and the power of the stories we tell. Edward Bloom is a legendary storyteller, known for spinning fantastical tales filled with witches, giants, circus towns, and impossible adventures. To Edward, these stories are truth wrapped in wonder—but to his practical son, Will, they feel like exaggerations that stand between them and a real connection. As Edward’s life draws to a close, Will embarks on a journey through these myths to discover the man behind the magic, learning that sometimes the most extraordinary stories carry the deepest truths. Overflowing with imaginative visuals, whimsical characters, and a soaring score by Andrew Lippa, Big Fish is a celebration of imagination, legacy, and the enduring power of love. Hilarious, tender, and breathtaking, this musical invites audiences to laugh, cry, and fall in love with a life well told.

Review: THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGE)[REVISED][AGAIN] at DreamWrights
by Sandra Harberger - Mar 16, 2026


The show opens by immediately breaking the fourth wall as the audience is introduced to our actors for the evening. Joseph and Andrew are lead by Ryan, a Shakespearean scholar with questionable credentials, and their goal is performing the entire canon of Shakespeare in one night. The energetic trio start us off with the well-known tragedy of “Romeo and Juliet” filled with raunchy innuendos, puns, improv, and over the top physical comedy. The pace and hilarity speeds up from there leaving the audience and the actors out of breath by intermission. The second act focuses on Hamlet after everyone had a well earned break.
