Review: MAD Theatre of Tampa Presents Frank Loesser's GUYS AND DOLLS at the Shimberg Playhouse


by Peter Nason - January 20, 2026

Does GUYS AND DOLLS belong in the conversation as the greatest musical written in the  20th Century?  The answer may certainly be a big fat “YES,” but the competition is fierce; it must go head to head with the likes of West Side Story, My Fair Lady, Gypsy, Cabaret, Sweeney Todd and any of the early...

Review: BLUE MAN GROUP at Straz Center


by Deborah Bostock-Kelley - January 18, 2026

This was a technicolor circus‑concert fever dream. If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if a circus, a rock concert, and a neon‑soaked art installation had a baby, the answer is simple: Blue Man Group. And let me tell you — it was amazing, bright, colorful, and unapologetically LOUD in the best...

Review: A Literary Work Becomes a Phenomenon With THE OUTSIDERS: A NEW MUSICAL at the Straz Center


by Drew Eberhard - January 03, 2026

The year, 1967, the place, Tulsa, Oklahoma, and its central narrative came from the scrawlings of a 16-year-old named Susan Eloise Hinton, and the rest as we know it is solidified into literary history. History so much, that it has sparked a re-birth with a new generation and with the new stage adap...

Review: WATER FOR ELEPHANTS at Straz Center


by Deborah Bostock-Kelley - October 30, 2025

This was a breathtaking circus of beauty, brutality, and heart. This is one of those musicals that you will be talking about on the drive home - how the actors transformed seamlessly from present to past, the music, and simply the beauty of a simple set....

Review: EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL at Stageworks Theatre


by Deborah Bostock-Kelley - October 25, 2025

I mean, really… what could possibly go wrong when five college students break and enter into a secluded cabin in the middle of the forest? Turns out, just about everything.

Review: GHOST BROTHERS OF DARKLAND COUNTY at JOBSITE THEATER


by Drew Eberhard - October 21, 2025

Let me start with a question, if you shall indulge me for a moment. What happens when one of the greatest storytelling musicians of modern times, and the master of horror/suspense and the downright weird, decides to form a partnership? What happens when you take a story, stretch the lore, change th...

Review: AMITYVILLE 74 at Carrollwood Cultural Center


by Deborah Bostock-Kelley - October 18, 2025

Amityville '74 isn’t just a play—it’s a psychological gut punch. This is not for kids. It’s a harrowing, emotionally charged descent into the trauma of a family unraveling, culminating in murder. Don’t expect to go home and sleep easy. This production grips you by the throat and doesn’t let go....
