Opening this Friday, April 21 with performances running through May 14, The Seacoast Repertory Theatre Presents: Ghost - The Musical, a spectacle of dance, special effects, and magic with its largest live orchestra to date.

What did our critic think of MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET at Ogunquit Playhouse At The Music Hall? On December 4, 1956, at a time when their individual careers were on different trajectories, four musical legends gathered at Sun Record Studios in Memphis, Tennessee to record a few tunes. It would be the one and only time that the four musicians ever jammed together in a recording studio.

What did our critic think of PARADE MARCHES INTO SEACOAST REPERTORY THEATRE at Seacoast Repertory Theatre? Seacoast Repertory Theatre distinguishes itself once again with a bold choice of producing Parade, a dynamic musical production based on a true life story that tackles issues of antisemitism, mob mentality, and outright hate in the 1913 world of Atlanta, Georgia.

The Seacoast Repertory Theatre opens its 2023 season pushing its edge of creativity in a spellbinding performance of 'Man Of La Mancha,' a well-known musical launched in 1965. While keeping the bones of the original production, this one is an explosive reimagination that breaks the usual barriers of casting and staging.

What did our critic think of SWEENEY TODD-THE DEMON BARBER OF FLEET STREET at Seacoast Repertory Theatre?

What did our critic think of BEAUTIFUL - THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL at Ogunquit Playhouse? The show is a revealing story about pop music icon, Carole King. While many know of her success as a solo vocalist and song writer after releasing the album, 'Tapestry,' few will know about her previous career as part of a songwriting team that produced a string of hits in the 1960s. (Today, more than 400 of her compositions have been recorded by over 1,000 artists resulting in 100 single hits and six Grammy awards.)

What did our critic think of BLOOD BROTHERS at Weathervane Theatre? Blood Brothers by Willy Russell is a one-of-a-kind musical theater production that is currently playing at the Weathervane Theatre in Whitefield, New Hampshire.

What did our critic think of LUCKY STIFF at The Barnstormers?

Mr. Holland's Opus is a world premiere new musical currently running at the Ogunquit Playhouse based on the 1995 motion picture of the same title. It is a story set in San Francisco in 1969 about a successful musician and composer, Glenn Holland (Akron Watson) who switches careers to become a first-time music teacher at John F. Kennedy high school so that he can spend more time with his wife, Iris (Anastasia Barzee).

You will never look at the evening sky in about the same way after seeing a performance of Lauren Gunderson's charming play, Silent Sky.

The Nutty Professor at the Ogunquit Playhouse is a newly retooled world premiere musical based on the 1963 Jerry Lewis film of the same title. A comic flick favorite, The Nutty Professor is a story of a Jekyll and Hyde transformation that takes place for a mild mannered and befuddled college professor.

Who would believe that a show about an Elvis impersonator turned drag queen could be such a hit in the middle of New Hampshire's summer theater season?

Worth the Journey -Into the Woods

What did our critic think? While the Seacoast Repertory Theatre has mounted contemporary musical productions in recent years, none resonate more on the Portsmouth stage than the timeless, classic, and vintage shows from the heydays of Broadway.

Imagine yourself going to a concert by performing legend, Cher. Then imagine that she spends the evening telling you about her life story through the difficulties of a struggling career to the transformation that made her an entertainment powerhouse. And she's not aloof on center stage. Throughout the evening she's talking directly to you, the audience. The banter is delectable.

La Cage Aux Folles currently playing at the Seacoast Repertory Theater in Portsmouth is a reminder of how far we come in the world of acceptance.

I loved every minute of the musical, Young Frankenstein, the season closer for what has been an incredible year for the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine's treasured seaside town.
