Review: NEXT TO NORMAL at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Julie Gardieff - Aug 10, 2026
What makes Next to Normal so powerful is that it refuses to offer easy answers. The musical explores grief, mental illness, and family relationships in a way that feels honest and often uncomfortable, allowing audience members to empathize with each character's struggles.

Review: INTO THE WOODS We Go Again at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - Aug 2, 2026
One of the greatest joys of experiencing live theater comes from the ability to revisit a past show through a new lens. When shows are revived or a new company mounts their own production, this allows newer voices to put their stamp on timeless material. The hallmark of any timeless story is its ability to transform and adapt with the changing times. Part and parcel with this is a willingness to step out of one’s comfort zone in order to provide a new emotional truth to material that is both familiar and unknown.

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.

by Julie Gardieff - Jul 10, 2026

Review: SIX: THE MUSICAL at Dr. Phillips Center For The Performing Arts
by Albert Gutierrez - Jun 4, 2026
Four years after first seeing SIX, I still remain impressed by how well the musical continues to work. What initially seemed like a clever gimmick – a pop concert starring the six wives of Henry VIII – has instead proven itself to be one of the most inventive pieces of musical theatre of the last decade.
