by Michela Dwyer - October 14, 2024
The National Ballet of Ukraine and the Shumka Dancers recently performed a beautiful program at the Kennedy Center Opera House aptly titled Nadiya Ukraine, “nadiya” meaning “hope” in Ukrainian. In a two-hour show, the audience witnessed the richness of Ukrainian culture, the bleak interpersonal realities of war, and the courage of Ukrainians to find joy through it all.

Review: NATIONAL BUNRAKU THEATER AT THE KENNEDY CENTER at The Kennedy Center's Terrace Theater
by Emily Berger - October 10, 2024
Confounding at times and also beautiful, this traditional puppetry company is wrapping us a US tour. Yes, orchestras may downsize from 30 violins to 25, but it still takes all 25 roughly forty minutes to play Beethoven’s sixth symphony. You could speed up the tempo, increasing “output” with the same number of performers (the orchestra could play it twice in an hour instead of 1.5 times!) but no audience pays to listen to it twice in a row nor wants to hear it played vivace.

Review: SONDHEIM TRIBUTE REVUE at Creative Cauldron
by Peter Rouleau - October 08, 2024
Few American composers have been as influential as Stephen Sondheim, who passed away in 2021 at the age of 91. His large catalogue, with subjects and settings that vary from a modern single man navigating social relationships among his married friends to a murderous pie-shop keeper in Victorian London, to an amalgam of fairy tales, is widely performed and much beloved around the world.

Review: EISENHOWER: THIS PIECE OF GROUND at Olney Theatre Center
by Elliot Lanes - October 07, 2024
Solo theatrical pieces are probably among the hardest sells to an audience because there is only one performer keeping you interested in the subject. These theatrical offerings require a delicate balance between educating and entertaining audiences. Olney Theatre Center’s current attraction, Eisenhower: This Piece of Ground, unequivocally accomplishes this through with Tony Award winner John Rubinstein’s outstanding portrayal of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Richard Hellesen’s well written and engaging script.
