What did our critic think of TOOTSIE at Orpheum Theatre?

Written by New Rules, Sam Klempner, and Jamie Squire (of The 1975), the reflective track laments the friendship lost after a romantic relationship ends (“How come it’s so easy to go from friends to lovers / but not lovers to friends?”). “Old Days” arrives alongside an official lyric video, which is streaming now.

TOOTSIE (The Musical), is a fun opening evening for the seventy-first season of Starlight Theatre at Swope Park across from the Kansas City Zoo. Tootsie (The Film) was so good it is preserved it on the United States National Film Registry. Add the sea-change in attitudes surrounding same-sex relationships and this show is set up to be a very tough sell. Remarkably, TOOTSIE (The Musical) absolutely works.

The Art Gallery of South Australia today announced the twenty-seven finalists who have been selected for the Ramsay Art Prize 2023 – a $100,000 acquisitive prize for contemporary Australian artists under the age of forty. In this fourth iteration of the prize, the finalists are:

GRAMMY Award-nominated, two-time Brit Award-winning, multi-platinum-selling singer/songwriter Lewis Capaldi shares his intensely personal new single “Wish You The Best” and its unforgettably moving video. Capaldi began by co-writing alongside songwriter JP Saxe (Julia Michaels, FLETCHER) and Malay (Lorde, Frank Ocean).

Jazz music will be blooming this spring on both stages at Uptown! Knauer Performing Arts Center. The Chester County performing arts venue is set to welcome multiple artists to its two intimate settings, hosted by Sara Michaels and the Jazz Cocktail Hour Series.

What did our critic think of TOOTSIE at The Aronoff Center? As theatre innovates and reinvents, the days of the old-time musical comedies are all but behind us. But the broadway musical adaption of Tootsie (based on the 1982 film), is a welcome and refreshing musical comedy. The story is simple: an out of work actor needs a job, that actor gets hired in disguise as a woman, and deceit and hilarity ensues.

She's not like a regular mom, she's a cool mom! Busy Philipps has joined the Mean Girls film adaptation as Mrs. George, Regina George's mother. Phillips joins the previously announced Jenna Fischer, Tina Fey, Tim Meadows, Reneé Rapp, Angourie Rice, Auli'i Cravalho, Jaquel Spivey, Avantika, Bebe Wood, and Christopher Briney.
