BWW Reviews: ANNE FRANK AND ME at 2nd Stage Studio in Clearwater

Don't come in expecting the Broadway classic; this version is pure Disney. Although the fast moving show doesn't reach the heights of some of Stage West's earlier youth shows, it's perfect for kids....
BWW Reviews: Devastating, Exhilarating ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST at freeFall

BWW Reviews: Jobsite's Inventive INVENTING VAN GOGH at the Shimberg
INVENTING VAN GOGH is a beautifully written and acted time-skipping love letter to art history, an accurate examination of the struggles each artist (not just Van Gogh) faces in the creation of something new, and a mystery in a world that has a hard time telling the difference between what is genuin...
BWW Reviews: Intriguing INVENTING VAN GOGH at Jobsite Theater

BWW Reviews: Return to the Age of Aquarius with HAIR at Eight O'clock Theatre
