BWW Review: NEWSIES at EPAC
Stop the presses! EPAC's production of Newsies is highly energetic and entertaining. Based on the 1992 Disney film of the same name, Newsies is a classic David and Goliath story about the real life 1899 NYC newsboy strike. Richard Thomas stars as Jack Kelly, a charismatic leader of the newsboys. Thomas has a fine voice and moves around the stage with grace and confidence. A quibble with the script is that I was not really sure how old his character was supposed to be. Some of Jack's dialogue and motives are more akin with that of a young adult, not someone who spends most of his day around ten year olds.
BWW Reviews: Alpha/Omega Players Presents JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
The Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice rock opera, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, is the latest production at Alpha/Omega Players in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania. This show is loosely based on the last week of Jesus's life. Alpha/Omega does a decent job taking on this large production, as they creatively use the small space they have to fit a very large cast. Alpha/Omega's production of JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR is a satisfactory show with some intense moments.

Photo Flash: Meet the Cast of EPAC's ASSASSINS
Ephrata Performing Arts Center's Oct. 17- Nov. 2 production of Assassins frames portraits of nine presidential assassins and wannabes-from John Wilkes Booth through Lee Harvey Oswald-in the garish setting of a carnival shooting gallery. Rather than offend by glorifying these misfits and misguided 'patriots,' Assassins personalizes them with piercing insight, comedy and pathos.
