BWW Reviews: Aurora's DROWSY CHAPERONE - New Laughs in a Nostalgic Show

Before Oscar Hammerstein II, Jerome Kern, and Richard Rodgers revolutionized the American musical, Broadway was filled with shows comprised of simple, silly characters; fun, up-beat songs; and storylines and plot-twists that rarely made sense. While 'The Drowsy Chaperone' didn't debut until 1998, this fictitous flapper-era farce would have fit in perfectly with the Gershwins' light-hearted 'Girl Crazy' and Cole Porter's joyous, but convoluted 'Anything Goes.' With music and lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison and a book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar, 'The Drowsy Chaperone,' now playing through April 14th at the Aurora Theatre both faithfully celebrates and hilariously sends-up the musical comedies of this bygone era.

Seacoast Rep Opens JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH 4/13

Roald Dahl's classic tale of a boy and his magic peach comes to life on The Rep stage! After the smashing success of PAPA's (Portsmouth Academy of Performing Arts) collaboration with the Rep's Adult Resident Company's production of Winnie The Pooh A Christmas Tale, director Miles Burns felt as though he should continue the tradition of combining youth apprentices with seasoned adult actors to put on a youth production. James and The Giant Peach was an "obvious choice" says Burns "The story lends itself to the adult actors being able to portray many different roles, and to have some fun while doing it. And it allows the youth company to work with adult actors they look up to and 'step up their game'. The combination is a winning match." (more...)
