REVIEW: St. Louis Shakespeare Continues Season with MACBETH at the Grandel Theatre
by Chris Gibson - October 04, 2009
Shakespeare's MACBETH is a perfect choice for the beginning of the Fall season, especially when one looks ahead to that most macabre of holidays; Halloween. Shakespeare's play is filled with gruesome murders and bloody mayhem, although a great deal of it does occur offstage. Like many of his tragedies, a lot of people perish as a power-hungry man, this time cajoled by his woman, claws his way to the throne.

REVIEW: Andrew Lloyd Webber's THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA Opens at the Fox Theatre for Extended Run
by Chris Gibson - October 03, 2009
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is really a triumph of staging with Harold Prince's direction presenting and coordinating these spectacular set pieces with cinematic precision. The constant movement of actors and curtains and backdrops provides a dazzling display of theatrical technique and technical virtuosity. Maria Bjornsson's amazing production design and Andrew Bridge's moody concert lighting scheme also contribute immensely. And, of course, there's Webber's full-bodied orchestral score (with lyrics by Charles Hart and Richard Stilgoe) to contend with as well.
