After seeing Grease on opening night, I sat down with Nick Cortazzo and Taylor Quick, playing the lead roles, to understand who these two talented performers are and why they came to Lancaster’s Fulton theater for this popular show. What follows is excerpts from that conversation:

What did our critic think of ALL MY SONS at The Belmont Theatre? A powerful performance, of a tragic and intense story, left audience members agasp at The Belmont Theatre.

With the help of technology, I had the pleasure of sitting down with two fascinating women who play the lead roles in the upcoming Dutch Apple production of Sister Act. Not only did they share their background and journey, but they offered deep and fun insights into their upcoming roles.

What did our critic think of NEIL SIMON'S BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS at Susquehanna Stage?

What did our critic think of FOUR WEDDINGS AND AN ELVIS at The Belmont Theatre?

What did our critic think of RENT at Susquehanna Stage?

What did our critic think of A TALE OF TWO CITIES at Cavod Theatre? A most unique experience was had at the Cavod Theatre. This family-centered Christian organization develops shows to not only support their ministry, but to provide opportunities for the community to come together and support one another. A Tale of Two Cities took an interesting approach that I had never seen before. The director uses local community members to support a handful of professional actors. In doing so, the audience members get both sweet performances from young talent as well as powerful moments from experienced artists.

What did our critic think of AGNES OF GOD at Susquehanna Stage?

What did our critic think of MISERY at The Belmont Theatre?

Stephane Duret is finally back on stage! The return of Kinky Boots to Lancaster's Fulton Theatre provided this seasoned actor with an opportunity to bring to life a favorite role.

After being forced to shut down during the pandemic, Kinky Boots has returned to the Fulton Theatre in Lancaster PA. Along with its return is Matt Farcher reviving his role as Charlie Price.

After much recognition, including a festival finalist and selection for a prestigious showcase, For Colored Boyz on the verge of a nervous breakdown when freedom ain't enuff is making its World/ Regional Premiere. Written, directed, and choreographed by Bryan-Keyth Wilson, this choreopoem dives deep into the lived experience of five men of color and the challenges of a racist and oppressive society.

Known for producing outstanding quality shows in one of the nation's oldest opera houses, it comes as no surprise that the Fulton Theatre's next production is already swirling with Broadway buzz.

What did our critic think of CATS at Susquehanna Stage? What a fantastic night at Susquehanna Stage. While 'Cats' might not be everyone's favorite Broadway show, due to its limited plot and almost music review format, there is no denying that the energy of this cast, the creativity of the choreography, the amazing costuming, and live orchestra made this production of 'Cats' outstanding.

What did our critic think of A RAISIN IN THE SUN at Susquehanna Stage?

Attempting to produce a show adapted into an award-winning film is challenging. With audience members continually comparing the performance to highly acclaimed actors, it takes a brave director and a confident cast to pull off Steel Magnolias. Jack Hartmann (director) should be applauded for rising to the challenge and creating a wonderful night at The Belmont Theatre's interactive black box environment.

Whether you know all the songs of Leiber & Stoller or only a few, there is something for everyone in the Fulton Theatre's production of Smokey Joe's Cafe.
