Review: A BEAUTIFUL BLUE MORNING SKY at The Keegan Theatre
Besides the massive geopolitics of it all, the terror attacks also jolted individual emotions , almost to a person. We dealt as a nation with loss, felt empathy, a degree of hopelessness and a welling of national pride and determination as a way to endure and persevere.…

Review: GARBO: THE ACTOR WHO SAVED THE WORLD at GALA Hispanic Theatre
The world premiere production kicking off the 51st season at GALA Hispanic Theatre, “GARBO: The Actor Who Saved the World,” is not, it turns out, about Greta at all. Rather, it’s about somebody else far fewer people have heard of, who was working roughly the same time — World War II to be sp…

Review: STAGE, SCREEN, AND SYMPHONY with Josh Groban and the NSO, Sean O’Loughlin Conductor at Wolf Trap
It is not often that a singer can enter a stage with a full symphony orchestra playing behind him and hold a sold out crowd of 7,028 people spellbound. This past Saturday evening at Wolf Trap’s Filene Center, Grammy nominated singer/actor Josh Groban did just that while being backed by YOUR Nation…
