Review: THE NOTEBOOK: THE MUSICAL at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - May 14, 2026


The stage production does make a lot of strides that strengthens the endurance and popularity of this love story. It repeats iconic moments from the popular 2004 film, but isn’t aping the original screenplay in any way. A new libretto offers a fresh take that borrows the basic structure of the novel and memorable film moments, whilst breathing in new voices and new scenes that add different layers to these familiar characters.

Review: AMERICAN IDIOT at at Short North Stage
by Paul Batterson - Sep 7, 2025


What did our critic think of AMERICAN IDIOT at At Short North Stage? In Short North Stage’s production of AMERICAN IDIOT, everything isn’t meant to be okay. The characters are disappointed, disillusioned, and defiant, and their story is depressing, dark, and disturbing.
