Spotlight: THE BROTHERS SIZE at The Repertory Theatre St. Louis
by BWW Special Offer - October 31, 2025
The Brothers Size Now Playing At The Rep! Deep in the Louisiana bayou, myth meets the common man. In The Brothers Size, Academy Award–winner Tarell Alvin McCraney fuses Yoruba cosmology with contemporary reality to craft an immersive and visceral exploration of brotherhood, incarceration, and the fight for freedom. Gritty, poetic, and mythic in scale, this electrifying drama pulses with rhythm, ritual, and raw humanity.

Review: Tom Morello's Gritty Rebellious Score Drives REVOLUTION(s) at The Goodman
by James Lindhorst - October 20, 2025
Revolution(s) is a well-designed, fast-paced, and adrenaline-fueled production with outstanding music. Fans of Tom Morello will love his frenetic and hard-hitting score. Director Steve Broadnax fills his production with believable performances and riveting vocals from an immensely talented cast. Zayn Ayers Dohrn’s book misses connecting the audience to his character’s motivations. But his narrative does have a definitive message that is unmistakable - do whatever it takes to raise a voice against racism and injustice.

Review: Albion Theatre’s I HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE is a Supernatural Story Stuck in Spiraling Time
by James Lindhorst - October 18, 2025
Albion Theatre consistently produces polished and well rehearsed plays. I Have Been There Before is no exception. It is extremely well directed, acted, designed, and stage managed. Priestly’s script has never connected with an audience to enjoy a lengthy theatrical run, but the Albion production is entertaining, with the second and third acts moving much more briskly than the first.
Review: The Rep Gets Supernatural with THE WOMAN IN BLACK
by Rob Levy - October 17, 2025
The atmosphere is scary, the drama is intense, and the unexplained abounds in this well-acted production that relies on atmospherics, lighting, and effects to thrill and chill its audiences. The Woman In Black is an unnerving delight.

Review: THE LIFE OF PI at the Fabulous Fox Theatre
by Rob Levy - October 13, 2025
There are no musical numbers in the Fox Theatre’s 2025-2026 season opener. But that’s okay. Instead of a full-blown musical spectacle the company has opted for a moving production of The Life of Pi.
Review: PROFESSOR HOUSE is Gripping Psychological Drama
by James Lindhorst - October 13, 2025
Professor House blends Jacob Juntunen’s psychologically charged script with visionary direction, spellbinding performances, and evocative lighting and sound design. Director Sam Hayes, the cast, and technical team create an otherworldly experience that is riveting, thrilling, and absorbing. The macabre subject matter is deeply unsettling, but Hayes’ immersive storytelling is impressively unforgettable. It is a directorial masterwork from an emerging theater artist with an immense amount of vision and talent.
