Review: THE BODYGUARD at Alte Oper, Frankfurt And On Tour In The UK
by André Böke - Apr 5, 2026
The touring production of The Bodyguard arrives at a pivotal moment in its continental journey. After stops in Zurich, Munich and Berlin, interspersed with various UK engagements including London, the show now plays its final German date at the Alte Oper Frankfurt. From here, it will return to British venues through mid-year. There is, accordingly, a sense of culmination in the air: a production taking its last bow on German soil before retreating to its home circuit. And what a send-off it proves to be.

Review: ELVIS AND ELTON TOGETHER at New Theatre Restaurant
by Alan Portner - Feb 22, 2026
“Elvis and Elton Together” rates a big five stars. Victor Trevino Jr. as Elvis is back and is as good as ever. Sean McGibbben becomes the incredible Elton John. Victor and Sean wisely introduce themselves as tribute artists rather than impersonators.
Review: ANGELS IN AMERICA, PART TWO: PERESTROIKA at Theater West End
by Albert Gutierrez - Feb 21, 2026
Theater West End was wise to split Angels in America in the season as two separate performances, each with their own block in the schedule. Originally, I was concerned that the Part Two of it all might turn away prospective theatergoers. But upon watching both parts now, and bearing in mind my own familiarity for the characters, I can also see now how the original production’s 18-month gap would have also been enticing for an audience.

Review: SISTER ACT at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - Aug 16, 2025
At its heart, Sister Act: The Musical is a celebration of sisterhood and the unexpected bonds formed in the most unlikely places. While Deloris Van Cartier begins her journey chasing fame, her time with the nuns reveals a deeper calling: not spiritual in the traditional sense, but rooted in connection, community, and self-worth.
