Review: ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER’S TELL ME ON A SUNDAY at FreeFall Theatre
by Drew Eberhard - September 17, 2025
A rarely done musical, Tell Me On a Sunday, features music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Don Black. “...Sunday...” is primarily a one-woman show, and most notably made famous by Bernadette Peters and Marti Webb. In this 70-minute One-Act Song Cycle, we meet an ordinary English Girl who, from Muswell Hill, finds herself traveling to America in search of love. Her misadventures begin in New York City, see her traveling to Hollywood, and finally back to Manhattan, where it all began.

Review: EVERY BRILLIANT THING at Carrollwood Cultural Center
by Deborah Bostock-Kelley - September 14, 2025
Every Brilliant Thing was raw, immersive, and unforgettable. From the moment Paul Berg stepped into the center of the room, it was clear this wasn’t going to be a typical theatre experience. The play took me from childhood heartbreak to adult healing, weaving humor, music, and audience interaction into a deeply personal journey. I laughed. I cried. I questioned. And I left changed. This play stays with you. It’s as its name implies... BRILLIANT.

by Peter Nason - August 31, 2025
The brilliance of the script is that, although first written in the 1950s, it still has so much relevance to our world today. The audience at the performance I saw was one of the most robust, vocally supportive and emotional audiences I have ever seen.
