Review: AMAZING GRAVES Sets Two Short Plays Inside the Same Cemetery


by Shari Barrett - June 17, 2026

Have you ever wondered what really goes on in cemeteries when memories are shared with those seen and unseen at grave sites?  Then head on over to see two, funny and life-affirming plays in this year’s Hollywood Fringe Festival, bundled together as Amazing Graves, produced by Amanda Lynne for Neo...

Review: Diana Varco Shares Her Journey to RISE Above Childhood Rage


by Shari Barrett - June 16, 2026

It's a very well done, confrontational hour-long play at this year’s Hollywood Fringe Festival, but also life-affirming to know none of us are alone in the struggle for emotional maturity rather than turn to the easy crutches of overeating, alcohol abuse, drug use or unbridled sex to forget about ...

Review: ANASTASIA - THE MUSICAL Enchants at La Mirada Theatre


by Michael Quintos - June 11, 2026

I'll say this now: this Summer's most beguiling, most enchanting theatrical surprise is perhaps the brand new, gorgeously opulent regional production of ANASTASIA - THE MUSICAL, now on stage at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts through June 20, 2026. A visual stunner punctuated by remark...

Review: OC's Segerstrom Center Welcomes New Tour of THE SOUND OF MUSIC


by Michael Quintos - June 08, 2026

You may ask yourself—is seeing a touring stage production of the globally and generationally ubiquitous 1959 musical THE SOUND OF MUSIC still worth experiencing live on stage in 2026? While the stage musical in its current touring form certainly doesn't offer anything revolutionary or new to the s...

Review: 9 TO 5 THE MUSICAL at the Morgan-Wixson Theatre in Santa Monica


by Shari Barrett - June 06, 2026

Review: THE MAGIC FLUTE at LA OPERA


by Andrew Child - June 04, 2026

Suzanne Andrade and Barrie Kosky’s Magic Flute returns to LA Opera with a whimsical fusion of animations by Paul Barritt. The effect of the production is a bit surprising. Yes, as characters are revealed by revolving doors and interact with animations of barking dogs, Mozart’s music takes on a n...

Review: Defying Gravity - An Evening with Stephen Schwartz Flies to the Irvine Barclay


by Michael Quintos - June 04, 2026

It's a very rare treat—particularly all the way here in Orange County, California—to hear Broadway songs and the stories behind them performed directly by the legendary composer himself, even for just a one-night-only event. But that is exactly the gift bestowed upon a rapt audience recently whe...

Review: HELL'S KITCHEN at Hollywood Pantages


by Evan Henerson - June 03, 2026

As substantial as its built-in assets are, the two-time Tony Award winner, musical is lacking in other areas. Book writer Kristoffer Diaz has crafted an exciting leading character, and an even more interesting supporting player. Alas, he has also included a rather perfunctory family triangle that gu...
