Wie kann das Leben abgeschlossen werden, wenn noch Rechnungen offen sind? Ein Bühnenunfall bringt eine Diva nicht nur um das Grand Finale ihrer Comeback-Show, sondern auch ums Leben.
Review: WATER FOR ELEPHANTS at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - Nov 5, 2025
The 2024 production earned seven Tony Award nominations, including Best Musical, which I feel is an earned acknowledgment that speaks more to the craftsmanship, the ambition, and the emotional journey present in the show. The stage production’s direction, choreography, puppetry design, and ensemble synergy create moments of theatrical awe that are impossible to deny. What the songs lack in dramatic momentum, the production more than makes up for in its combination of narrative intimacy with large-scale visual storytelling.
Review: WATER FOR ELEPHANTS at Straz Center

This was a breathtaking circus of beauty, brutality, and heart. This is one of those musicals that you will be talking about on the drive home - how the actors transformed seamlessly from present to past, the music, and simply the beauty of a simple set.
Review: 1999 at WAM Theatre
by Marc Savitt - Oct 28, 2025
1999 is well written and multi-layered. The subject matter is troubling and will likely elicit a wide range of responses undoubtedly influenced by one’s individual life experiences. The piece presents audience members with a number of questions that are highly topical and relevant. Like the subject matter itself, they are not easy, nor do the answers present themselves quickly or clearly.
Review: THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE at TAFE: Theatre Arts For Everyone
by Sandra Harberger - Oct 18, 2025
TAFE introduces you to Narnia by walking you through the wardrobe. You meet young Lucy (Madalynn Richard), Edmund (Mason Damon), Peter (Kade Junk), and Susan (Faith Brown) as they discover the magical world of talking animals, witches, and winter that never ends. Karen Leclaire was excellent in her portrayal of the evil witch who has taken over Narnia. Her cold and callous character is quite the foil to the calm and paternal Aslan, played by Lucas Wise.
