Review: TITANIC ON ICE: THE MUSICAL! at the The Lift For Life Academy Theater
by James Lindhorst - June 23, 2024
TITANIC ON ICE: THE MUSICAL is a cross between a semi-successful “Saturday Night Live (SNL)” skit and a ridiculous hour-long sketch from the old “Carol Burnett Show.” The script, adapted by Rob McLemore, includes all the memorable pot points from the film, plus every silly joke or sight gag that came to mind. The production had the feel of an improve troupe presenting a concept show based on an idea tossed out from the audience. It is plausible to think that during rehearsals the cast and crew collaborated to continue adding jokes and sight gags.

Review: Albion Theatre's WOMAN IN MIND at Kranzberg Black Box Theater
by James Lindhorst - June 08, 2024
Albion Theatre’s WOMAN IN MIND is a mad, absurd comedy that works on every level. It is a marvelous collaboration between director, actors, and technical crew to enrich comedic storytelling. Emily Baker is fantastic in the insanely demanding role as Susan. She leads this company with a workhorse-like performance that affords the supporting cast the opportunity to create ridiculously droll characters.

Review: Alice Ripley with John McDaniel at Blue Strawberry Showroom and Lounge
by James Lindhorst - May 25, 2024
McDaniel’s vision for their collaboration, his music direction, and accompaniment brought an award-winning musical theatre actor back to the stage after a lengthy hiatus. Their show played directly into the strengths of Ripley’s vocal stylings with her massive voice. Ripley belted for two hours while these two artists graciously gave more of themselves than most artists do with a 90-minute cabaret set.
