Review: OKLAHOMA! at The Premiere Playhouse

by Sonja Niles — April 12, 2024
Opening Night of OKLAHOMA! at The Premiere Playhouse was a stroll down memory lane for the audience with a few “fresh takes' on the songs and scenes of the musical as written by Rodgers and Hammerstein.   The vocalists were all very strong performers and most of them were particularly inventive i...

by Sonja Niles — September 27, 2023
What did our critic think of BEETLEJUICE at Washington Pavilion? Shows like BEETLEJUICE, touring the country and showing at the Washington Pavilion’s Mary Sommervold Hall this week are a visual spectacle of lighting and scene design genius.

Review: GREASE at The Premiere Playhouse

by Sonja Niles — June 23, 2023
