Review: THE COLOR PURPLE at The Black Rep is a Satisfying Production

Review: THE COLOR PURPLE at The Black Rep is a Satisfying Production

by James Lindhorst · September 14, 2026

The Color Purple is a mid-tier movies-to-musical adaptation that falls just short of becoming a classic. Brenda Russell, Allee Willis, and Stephen Bray’s score is competent but uneven. However, Marsha Norman’s book and her message of resilience, self-actualization, liberation, and reclamation re…

by James Lindhorst · August 8, 2026

Meet Me in St. Louis is exactly what you hope, want, and expect from a stage adaptation of the classic movie musical. What makes this Muny staging special are the wonderful portrayals, the beautiful set, video, and costume designs, and the many nostalgic nods to St. Louis.…

Review: JOB at New Jewish Theatre is a Turbulent Psychological Drama

Review: JOB at New Jewish Theatre is a Turbulent Psychological Drama

by James Lindhorst · August 7, 2026

New Jewish Theatre’s production of JOB a visceral theatrical experience. It is a turbulent psychological drama with unexpected twists and turns. Director Annamaria Pileggi and actors John Contini and Kristen Lintvedt capture all of the heightened drama in Friedman’s riveting script.…

Review: THE TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA at St. Louis Shakespeare Festival

Review: THE TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA at St. Louis Shakespeare Festival

by James Lindhorst · August 6, 2026

In her program notes, Director Rebekah Scallet makes no apologies for staging what is often called Shakespeare’s weakest play. She has found a charming and playful way to present The Two Gentlemen of Verona for maximal audience enjoyment. There were plenty of bursts of laughter throughout and the …

Review: WAKEY WAKEY is a Poignant Look at End of Life

Review: WAKEY WAKEY is a Poignant Look at End of Life

by James Lindhorst · August 1, 2026

Eno’s end of life play is thoughtful and funny while avoiding morbidity. There is no fourth wall. The direct address monologue is a unique narrative structure that is rarely used by playwrights, but a style of storytelling that’s often staged by The Midnight Company (Thom Pain, The Absolute Brig…
