Review: JOHN PROCTOR IS A VILLAIN at Kansas City Repertory Theatre
by Alan Portner - Oct 12, 2026


KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It is fitting that a play about questioning the stories we inherit has a story of its own worth revisiting.

But there is something darker going on in this play too

Review: Encore Performing Arts Warms a FROZEN Heart at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - Jul 19, 2026


The selection of Frozen as the summer musical served multiple masters. Thematically, it fit within Encore’s 2025-2026 season’s theme of “Finding Yourself,” as the story of Queen Elsa discovering how to better control her powers also serves as a metaphor for self-love, self-acceptance, and self-esteem. Frozen also, let’s be honest, has always been a crowd-pleaser. It has a near universal appeal for various attendees who’d be interested in seeing a production at Dr. Phillips Center. Musical Theatre Acolytes. Disney Adults. Families looking for kid-friendly entertainment.

Party of One: Broadway’s Solo Show Takeover
by Jennifer Ashley Tepper - Apr 12, 2026


Broadway has a long history of one-person shows, including many that have been added to the canon in this century.  Seeing one actor powerfully create a whole world on stage can be an exceptional experience. Of course, one handers are hardly one-person projects; while there may only be one actor on stage, they are collaborating with an entire team of creatives, designers, and behind-the-scenes personnel to bring a show to life.
