Trafalgar Releasing has teamed up with GRAMMY-winning rock superstars Twenty One Pilots to release a concert film chronicling the band’s Mexico City show, where they performed to 65,000 attendees at a sold-out stadium during The Clancy World Tour.

The new Henry J. Kaiser Center for the Arts will bring the North American tour of the joyful and triumphant Broadway smash hit TINA – The Tina Turner Musical to the newly renovated and recently reopened iconic venue.

New Hampshire Theatre Project will present Discovering Magic with Andrew Pinard on December 26, 27, and 28 with Friday and Saturday evening performances at 7:30pm and Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2:30pm.

One of the most difficult decisions an actor can face is the choice between financial gain and artistic integrity. When you add the paranormal haunting from a previous actor who played Hamlet, that choice becomes even harder. Ghostlight Theatre’s production of I HATE HAMLET is a quirky but insightful look into the challenges many actors face.

Joy to the World! In celebration of her soon to be released holiday album Ann Kittredge: You Sleigh Me, Ms. Kittredge will appear at Chelsea Table + Stage.

GRAMMY winning artist Joe Jackson will present Hope and Fury and 2026 tour. The tour includes a stop at the Nancy and David Bilheimer Capitol Theatre.

To accompany the release of his new album, Joe Jackson and his band will embark on a major North American tour from May to July 2026, including a stop at BroadwaySF’s Curran Theatre.

I have done (almost) every job in theater you could think of…. I’ve helped produce, done PR, play selection committees. I’ve written works, edited works, worked on staged readings, dramaturged…jack of all trades, master of some!

In 1991, American Novelist Bret Easton Ellis published the highly controversial novel American Psycho. Through the story, we dive headfirst into a greed, lust, and ego-filled world told through the eyes of Patrick Bateman. A man so narcissistic, so label-driven, money hungry, and at the root of it all the depths of his humanity lie in a blood lust. Sure, he dates, he sleeps around, and is sometimes very graphic regarding his escapades, but at the root of his very being, he can’t feel. He shows no emotion, claims to never have fallen in love, and yet what is it that drives him?

For her debut, playwright Jessica Norman leans into the singular speculation that “the people in power” keep us humble citizens from the truth. It’s fascinating stuff. Long-listed for the Women’s Prize for Playwriting and directed by Imy Wyatt Corner, This Little Earth is a thin exploration of the debris of grief at a time where reality flickers. It’s alright, but it could be so much more.

Diane Keaton made her Broadway debut in the original Broadway production of Hair at the age of 22. The landmark musical started out at the Public Theater off-Broadway in 1967 before transferring to the Biltmore Theatre on Broadway in 1968. Keaton joined the cast for the Broadway run, originating her track in the show.

There’s truly no feeling quite like being in the presence of a legend. As the live band launched into an overture stitched together from the greatest hits of a long and decorated career, it became instantly clear that Benaroya Hall was packed wall-to-wall with devoted fans of Filipino icon Lea Salonga. The Seattle stop of her Stage, Screen & Everything In Between tour crackled with energy. It was electric, joyful, and, as Salonga herself noted with a laugh, impressively rowdy.

Perhaps no one is more surprised Steve Hackett is doing a retrospective on THE LAMB 50 years after the fact than the guitarist himself. THE LAMB was ranked in the top ten of Rolling Stone magazine’s top 50 progressive rock albums of all time. The BBC called it a “conceptual masterpiece.” Hackett has another word for it: an anomaly.

Colin Hay, who will perform an acoustic show Nov. 2 at the Southern Theatre (21 E. Main Street in downtown Columbus), disagrees with the assessment, but the former Men at Work frontman is a man of misperceptions. For example:

Keith Urban brought his HIGH AND ALIVE World Tour to Vancouver’s Rogers Arena on Wednesday September 10, delivering a night that showed why he remains as one of country music’s most engaging live performers.

The emotional terrain is fertile, but in Black Theatre Troupe’s 56th-season opener, GRACE AND GLORIE, the production comes close but not quite far enough to capture the fullness and weight that popularized the work.

Broadway, film, and television star Robert Lenzi (THE HAPPENING and THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL) is Patrick Bateman for this Houston run. He plays Patrick as an apex predator, but one that surprisingly gets lonely or feels isolated. There is not just the cold killer, but also a sense of what’s killing him.
