One Small Step

Cabaret-circus-champagne extravaganza Sabrage has been refreshed just in time to lift our hearts in this sorry hour. Wars continue in the Middle East despite claims of a “ceasefire”. 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. These are desperate times which force one to look deep into one’s soul and quietly ask: what kind of world are we leaving to Cher?

What did our critic think of INTO THE WOODS at Ouachita Baptist University Jones Performing Arts Center?

In order for there to be a true appreciation for the amount of labor that goes into creating a show, theatre students must understand each element of the work required to put it on. The immense amounts effort put in by technical shop workers can often go overlooked; their tireless work not fully understood by others involved in the production. For respect and cohesion, I believe that it is important for every theatre student to spend time working in technical shops. 

This year's nominees are checking in with BroadwayWorld to tell us all about how they got the news. Check back for live updates!

Spring has always felt like a natural time to reset. There’s something about the shift in seasons that makes me reflect on where I’ve been and where I want to go next. When it comes to theatre, this moment feels especially important for me because I’m in a stage of growth where I’m not just doing the work, I’m trying to understand who I am within it.

A few weeks ago I watched a series of reels made by Ken Davenport where he encourages high school theater organizations to incorporate more theatrical business positions into their organizations. I was instantly drawn to his words. I have performed in productions since I was around five years old. Performing will always be my first love, but my time in college has also given me such a passion for content creation. I have been given the incredible opportunity to be in charge of capturing people I love doing what they love, and I would not trade it for the world.

Dylan Mulvaney, who stars as Anne Boleyn in the Broadway musical Six through May 31, is addressing her critics. In a candid “Get Ready With Me” video shared to her social media platforms late last week, Mulvaney — who made her Broadway debut with the production in February — explained what it is like to replace an actor in a long-running musical as a trans person. 

While there is nothing wrong with simple, indifferent enjoyment of a performance, I want to challenge myself to find ways to actively engage with the content I am viewing. A critical lesson I have learned from my own producing experience is that, if I am not tuned in to the small details, it’s impossible to fully grasp the messages and concepts put forth by the director. Enjoying and learning from a show are two connected but different processes; I want to challenge myself to combine these experiences, finding pleasure in both.

The Middletown Arts Center will soon present the seventh edition of The MAC ONE-ACTS Play-Reading Festival, featuring original, one-act works by New Jersey playwrights read theatrically by local actors.

Murder with a touch of manners have arrived in delightfully dapper fashion at The Weekend Theater, where A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder—running through May 3—proves that sometimes climbing the social ladder requires a little… creative problem solving. Under the direction of David Weatherly, this production leans fully into the musical’s razor-sharp wit and farcical charm, delivering an evening that is as clever as it is wickedly entertaining.
