Sitting with a group of contracted, professional artists whose ages ranged from only seventeen to early twenties, seemed surreal as the show they aspired to perfect. Each question was target for their sharp tongues and good humor, giving one of the most riotous interviews in Miami's theatre scene.

Area Stage Company's Shrek The Musical doesn't redefine the wheel, it instead hands the audience a jet-pack.

Denton Community Theatre's Heathers is a celebration of all that glorious angst given by some truly beautiful performers.

Hedwig and the Angry Inch has kick stepped its way onto the Pompano Beach Cultural Center stage, with innovative emotional drives and unbelievable passions behind the two starring performers, which director Skye Whitcomb bond in a tirade of pained punk sincerity.

Patrick Fitzwater's Memphis keeps the dance swaying, the blues sinful, and the singing like a demon possessed.

Between the San Francisco premiere and her return to Seattle, BenDeLa answered questions about her shows, camp queens, and what's next for the so-called martyr of All Stars 3.

The boss bitch is back, and she's mad.

Bianca Del Rio is sitting on a tour bus, laughing. 'You'd be surprised what you can get away with in drag. Trust me, I'm proof!'

"It doesn't have to have that TV brand on it to make it a worthy event. Again, it's for the community. It's for the people. It's for all ages, it's a pageant! It's a night of really extravagant entertainment and glamour and humor and just a really good time."

'People need theatre in small towns. People need theatre in smaller cities, in different cities. We need it everywhere. It's important as an artist to remember that. It's not just about going for the brass ring - sometimes the brass ring is right there, sitting at home.'

The culmination of coast to coast minds, razor sharp wit, and star-power of the cast, makes Mister Act a smash hit of drag talent that hopefully is the first of many LRI/Peaches Christ productions.

I can't think of a more versatile drag performer than Willam, nor a bigger brand. Starring in multiple shows and a Lady Gaga film in the same year. A second book on the horizon. And who knows what else is in store?

Latrice Royale train barrels forward faster and faster each day. It's hard to guess where she may end up next, but the fact remains - I want to be there when she arrives. 'This is a parody of a classic favorite, Sister Act. We all love Whoopi. What a way to incorporate drag, theater, comedy - all in one show. '

Under the wistful and attentive direction of Patrick Fitzwater, Bridges is a lyrical, wrenching tour de force certain to wring the hearts of thousands.

Peaches dishes on future projects, her time in drag, and the importance of loving yourself first. 'It's just suspending reality and letting yourself go. In a way, I feel like, more than art, these days, what we do could be considered therapy.'

After a day of work in Vancouver, Jeremy Jordan still finds the time to spin his charm. 'Everybody has something incredible to offer, it's just a matter of finding out what that is and going for it.'

Fitzwater's immersion is beyond what you could find at any garden, and deeper than the grandest of canyons.

Bruce Lisner pulls together a star-studded cast of performers, each bringing their own personal blends onto the classic expectations. Despite some technical stumbles, MNM's Little Shop is a toe-tapping, smile-inducing injection for theatre-goers of any age.

Fitzwater's SECRET GARDEN is only a week into rehearsals, prominent and promising as the show could possibly be; his intimate, detail-oriented direction and meticulous manipulation of the stage is already making his Secret Garden a thrilling, sensational work.

Patrick Fitzwater brings us a world made of faith, trust, and pixie dust in his rendering of Peter and the Starcatcher, the side-splitting show Peter of a hundred heart-warming grins taking flight.
