BWW Review: Prologue Theatre's RECENT TRAGIC EVENTS a Wild, Thought-Provoking Ride
Recent Tragic Events, now being staged some 18 years after its premiere, is a piece that has matured beyond its original context.

A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS at Arena Stage is a breathtaking production that will stay with you long after curtain call.

BWW Review: A MEASURE OF CRUELTY at 4615 Theatre Company
'A Measure of Cruelty' is a deep, intimate portrait of what happens when social norms and expectations drive people to act in ways that are more damaging than fulfilling, more harmful than helpful, and how to break the cycles of violence and anger we think need to define us, especially men.

In NextStop Theatre's production of The Mountaintop, directed by Kevin McAllister, McNeil and Simmons are talented actors, but the play itself still needs to be polished.

BWW Review: LE CABARET DE CARMEN at IN Series
IN Series' 'Le Cabaret de Carmen' is a haunting, beautiful spin on the popular tragedy.
BWW Review: NEW YEAR'S EVE TRIBUTE TO ARETHA FRANKLIN at Kennedy Center
Some of Aretha Franklin's greatest performances happened at the Kennedy Center - chief of which may have been a 2015 performance of '(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman' at the Kennedy Center Honors that made Barack Obama shed a tear in the Presidential box.
BWW Review: JERSEY BOYS at National Theatre
Jersey Boys, directed by Des McAnuff, is a typical, fast paced jukebox musical full of popular songs, but the storyline doesn't hit the right notes.

Keegan Theatre's production of 'An Irish Carol' by Matthew J.
BWW Review: THE MAGICAL PINATA at Keegan Theatre
