Fuel and food prices are heading north for the summer. Fascism leers openly on both sides of the Atlantic. The thirteenth season of Love Island is launching in less than a month.

French aristocrats, revolutionaries, traveling comedy troupes, swordsmen — Scaramouche packs it all in this world premiere musical that doesn’t stop moving and keeps you laughing. 

One thing about a Charlie Puth concert is that the music is almost guaranteed to sound great. The real question is whether the live performance can live up to the level of precision people have come to expect from him. At Vancouver’s Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre on May 5, Puth answered that question quickly. From the opening moments of the sold-out night, the WHATEVER’S CLEVER! WORLD TOUR felt built around the strengths that have defined his career for over a decade: polished production, strong live vocals, and an understanding of music that goes deeper than catchy hooks alone.

Perhaps the most well-known instance of a show changing titles during the development process belongs to the groundbreaking 1943 phenomenon, Oklahoma! The Rodgers and Hammerstein musical that changed the art form in terms of subject matter, integration of elements, and more was originally titled Away We Go! when it went out of town for a New Haven tryout. Oklahoma! is far from the only instance where a musical changed its title along the development road.
