Review: LOUISA MAY ALCOTT'S LITTLE WOMEN at Loretto-Hilton Center
The perfect aperitif for the company’s season, the play boasts an incredible cast, amazing costumes, and plenty of emotional heft. Set during a time of extreme political darkness, the theatrical gravitas derived from Alcott’s novel once again reminds us of the potency of words, connection, and t…
Review: Rug Burn Theatre’s STAY A WHILE: A BIRTHDAY PLAY IN FOUR SEASONS is a Wildly Imaginative Fanciful Treat
Flynn’s Stay A While is an energetic treat. His irresistibly funny performance filled with exuberant effervescence. Stay A While’s ephemeral joy feels like a child’s giddy anticipation for their birthday party. The poignant bittersweet, post-party wistful comedown shows what an insightful, …
Review: THE MERCY SEAT at St. Louis Actors’ Studio is a Taut Post 9/11 Drama Steeped in Intimate Realism
The Mercy Seat is a voyeuristic look at less-than-stellar people who contemplate taking advantage of a dire situation for their own selfish motives. Director John Pierson tells a compelling but uncomfortable story of self-centered opportunism. Actors Franklin Killian and Kelly Schneider inhabit flaw…
Review: THE COLOR PURPLE at The Black Rep is a Satisfying Production
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…
Review: CONFETTI KIDS at The Chapel
Confetti Kids addresses a serious health crisis. The contaminated Coldwater Creek has been associated with increased cancer risks and premature mortality. Aurora Behlke’s script effectively examines the risks associated with nuclear research and the safe handling of nuclear waste. Behlke’s play …
Review: The Muny’s SOMETHING ROTTEN! is Deliriously Funny
Director Rob Ruggiero, his cast, and the technical design teams deliver a rollicking comedy with a relentless stream of laughs. Everything about this production screams big budget musical comedy. The performances are first rate from the multitalented ensemble. The Muny’s Something Rotten is a ramb…
Review: SAMSON ET DALILA at Union Avenue Opera
Astounding tenor brings the house down!…
Review: EXTREMITIES at Tower Grove Abbey
Intense, poignant, and painted with shades of grey, Extremities, the latest production from Stray Dog Theatre, is psychological drama at its best. Well-acted and fraught with moral ambiguity, the company’s latest production is compelling and evocative. Suspensefully relentless, William Mastrosimon…
Review: MEET ME IN ST LOUIS at The Muny Overflows with Sentimentality and Heart
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.…
