Review: BALLET WEST: THE NUTCRACKER at Kennedy Center
by Roger Catlin - November 25, 2023
The first Nutcracker appear at the Kennedy Center this year is from Ballet West, based in Salt Lake City.

Review: SIR BRYN TERFEL at Kennedy Center
by Elliot Lanes - November 21, 2023
Sometimes it doesn't take much to make a reviewer happy and have an excellent musical experience. Welsh Bass-Baritone superstar Sir Bryn Terfel with only two instrumentalists proved that in spades. Add to that the bonus of what seemed like NO, that’s right, ZERO amplification this past Sunday in the Concert Hall at Kennedy Center. What’s not to like?

Interview: Theatre Life with Erin Driscoll
by Elliot Lanes - November 20, 2023
Today’s subject Erin Driscoll is someone you are most likely familiar with if you have been inhabiting productions in our area theatres for any length of time. Her memorable leading performances include the title character in Violet at Ford’s Theatre and Cloak and Daggar at Signature Theatre. You might be saying to yourself that you have not seen Ms. Driscoll onstage for a while and that you’ve been missing her superb soprano sound. Well, the wait is over because Erin Driscoll is back onstage in Signature’s current production of Ragtime where she is not only in the ensemble but also covers the role of Mother which she will be performing for both shows on December 10th. The production runs through January 7th in the MAX.
