FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Annie

Ageless ‘Annie’ Delights Broadway
9 / 10

In the extraordinarily entertaining revival of “Annie” that has now opened on Broadway, Daddy Warbucks (the gruffly charming Australian star Anthony Warlow) has met his match.

James Lapine, Alchemist
10 / 10

This revival of "Annie" is fabulous. Creatively staged by James Lapine, Stephen Sondheim's longtime collaborator, and smartly cast from top to bottom, it makes a convincing case for a musical widely regarded by cynical adults as suitable only for consumption by the very, very young. Even if you're a child-hating curmudgeon, you'll come home grinning in spite of yourself.

BWW Review: Celebrity Series of Boston Kicks Off 80th Season with ALAN CUMMING: LEGAL IMMIGRANT by Nancy Grossman - Oct 9, 2018

A year ago, almost to the day, Alan Cumming made his debut with the Celebrity Series of Boston, performing his touring show SINGS SAPPY SONGS at Sanders Theatre.

BWW Review: LOVE GENIUS AND A WALK, Drayton Arms Theatre by Gary Naylor - Oct 9, 2018

There's much promise in this play that speculates on what Sigmund Freud and Gustav Mahler may have spoken about on a walk they shared, but pedestrian writing and underdeveloped characters scupper any chance of its reaching its potential.

Guest Blog: Annie Siddons On DENNIS OF PENGE by Guest Blog: Annie Siddons - Oct 4, 2018
