Review: MEDUSA AT LA MONNAIE at La Monnaie
by Alexandre DIACONU - May 8, 2026


MEDUSA at La Monnaie opens with a sound that feels like it’s coming from somewhere far away, then closer, then right at your throat.

Then Medusa appears in white, framed by long red hair, while her two sisters, Euryale and Stheno, orbit her in black robes and strange headpieces, like omens.

Review: Kimberly Akimbo at Providence Performing Arts Center
by Andria Tieman - May 7, 2026


At it’s most basic, Kimberly Akimbo tells the story of a sixteen-year-old girl who has a chromosomal disorder that makes her age rapidly.  While that’s already an interesting premise, this musical goes much further than a typical ‘issues’ play and creates something wholly unexpected and quirkily delightful.
