by Stephanie Taylor & Dean Rogers Going into a new Cirque Du Soleil this past Friday, we wondered how any Cirque Du Soleil show fits in with the rest that we have seen. Each show is unique in their own way, but whoever thought to combine arresting visuals common to their performances and the wonderful music […]
As I write this revue, I hear “Rave On” playing from the jukebox in the movie “Pleasantville” and am again reminded of the impact that Buddy Holly had on music, culture, and performance. He was a true genius and innovator and deserves a full-blown show in his honor!
On this Sunday afternoon an enjoyable experience with strings attached; literally not figuratively speaking of course. A puppet show! It was the Cashore Marionettes presentation of Simple Gifts. Joseph Cashore a professional puppeteer has performed all over the world, he crafts all his puppets by hand and even designs their mechanics.
I am surprised that it wasn’t a sold-out show. I say, plan early for 2014 because once the word gets out, this will be sold-out… “Grease, is the word”!! We had “Summer Lovin’”, we were “Hopelessly Devoted, and we all were “Born to Hand Jive”!
The Gilbert and Sullivan Players came back to Wolf Trap this year to dazzle with “The Mikado”. Once again, NYGASP did not disappoint! They are truly one of the best and most consistent troupes I have ever seen! “The Mikado” is one of the best known from the Gilbert and Sullivan canon and they way […]
Green Day’s american IDIOT (Work Light Productions) plays at the Hippodrome through Sunday, May 12th. I would typically warn that this is a non-Equity cast, but this cast proves that talent doesn’t have to be in a union to exist!
“I could have watched all night, I could have watched all night…and still have begged for more!”

The legendary Warner Theater was transformed into Studio 33 to host America’s favorite game of prices, prizes and surprises! If you’re looking for the ultimate game show […]
The Filene Center, in what was the best weather of the season, rocked the night away. I won’t compare the show to the movie and performance versus performance because that isn’t fair. I will say however, that the story that the movie brought made waaaaaaay more sense.
Well, as boring as my title is, that’s how boring “The King and I” was. I’m not going to go too far with this revue because I know that I was in the minority! I will start by saying that, “The King and I” is a show that I have avoided performing in, for […]
