'Reefer Madness' is an incredibly smart and pointed show impersonating something far more pedestrian, and NextStop Theatre Company manages to capture this perfectly without ever feeling overproduced or trite.
What did our critic think of HOMELESS GARDEN at Avant Bard?
The producer Larry Klein honored the memory of Leonard Cohen with a 2022 tribute album that had a hushed sensibility and taste, as well as an impressive array of vocalists.
Frontiers Sans Frontiers is good.
What did our critic think of MARJORIE PRIME at Prologue Theatre At The Atlas?
A beautifully asynchronous and turbulent super-organism, Impermanence opened its weekend at the Kennedy Center’s Eisenhower Theater on April 16th.
The semantics and silence that delineate love and disclosure are operating at full throttle in the probing personal story of playwright and performer Adil Mansoor in the theatrical experience that is entitled Amm(i)gone.
Signature Theatre’s revival of the groovy Vietnam-era musical HAIR is wildly energetic, colorful, and full of spirit.
Ladies and gentlemen and children of all ages, The Illusionists brings the fun of magic and the magic of fun at a time when a little voluntary, recreational misdirection sounds like a great idea.
What did our critic think of TAFFETY PUNK THEATRE COMPANY'S VENUS AND ADONIS at Taffety Punk Theatre Company?
On Saturday, April 20, 2024, PASO brought their program, Todo Tango, an intimate and fiery evening of tango to the Kennedy Center.
This new work featured three episodes in Asian American history.

It’s the painting Girl with a Flute, long attributed to Vermeer, that adorns the program cover of the Washington Stage Guild’s world premiere production of “An Unbuilt Life.
You meet in the hotel lobby and go up the elevator in two groups of 10 to the fourth floor.
What did our critic think of CHICKS IN HEAVEN at Creative Cauldron?
'Unknown Soldier' is a beautifully performed show with a fascinating exploration of memory, love, and loss, but its main flaw is that it is a show seeking out answers to a mystery it not only fails to resolve, but further convolutes at every turn.
Now on tour, a new musical makes landfall at Olney Theatre Center with a fantastical song worthy of our attention
STC’s Macbeth highlights brutal pairs: war and domestic life, grief and humor, brief words and permanent consequences.
Message in a Bottle, a narrative dance work set to music by Sting, with choreography by Kate Prince ranging from hip hop to break dancing to contemporary, is sometimes maddening but often exhilarating.
Growing up, I didn't always have the warmest feelings toward's J.
What did our critic think of WEBSTER'S BITCH at The Keegan Theatre?
What did our critic think of THE NANCE at 1st Stage?
A lone man taking on a developer to keep his property.
Thursday’s return of Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo to the Kennedy Center brought a full house and lots of laughs to the DMV.
