Review: DEATH BECOMES HER at Ohio Theatre
by Paul Batterson - Oct 7, 2026

Review: DISNEY'S NEWSIES at Starlight Theater
by Alan Portner - Sep 9, 2026


Disney’s Newsies does not merely seize the day. It dances on it, vaults over it and occasionally executes a backflip before the day knows what struck it. It takes an 1899 historical event as a jumping off place and imagines the history as it might have been retold in a 1930’s Busby Berkeley movie substituting teenage newsboys for the 1930s dancing girls.  The show gets high marks for entertainment.
