Review: LOOT at Edge Of The Universe Theater
by Audrey Cahak - Jun 11, 2026


Billed by Edge of the Universe Theater as “Monty Python meets Oscar Wilde,” Loot is a quirky, satirical snapshot of 1960s Britain that shares images of 2020s America. Written in 1965 by controversial playwright Joe Orton, Loot explores religious, moral, and institutional corruption through the collision of a bank robbery and a funeral. The play was divisive in its day for being so counter-cultural, but in modern America, the distance heightens the comedic payout while retaining the overall anti-establishment rhetoric.

Review: OC's Segerstrom Center Welcomes New Tour of THE SOUND OF MUSIC
by Michael Quintos - Jun 8, 2026


You may ask yourself—is seeing a touring stage production of the globally and generationally ubiquitous 1959 musical THE SOUND OF MUSIC still worth experiencing live on stage in 2026? While the stage musical in its current touring form certainly doesn't offer anything revolutionary or new to the show's now timeless canon, this latest iteration is, overall, a genuinely enjoyable, unabashedly earnest, and pleasantly nostalgic revival of a classic, featuring everything that made the show so gosh darn lovable to our parents and their parents before them. Sticking to the familiar, the show remains a comfortably cozy revival that will satisfy those expecting more of the same. The tour continues at Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa through June 14, 2026.

by Franco Milazzo - May 28, 2026
