Blackfriars Theatre Stages THE HOT L BALTIMORE, Now thru 4/12
Take a trip back to the 1970's with Blackfriars Theatre's production of Lanford Wilson's comedy-drama, The Hot L Baltimore. The Hotel Baltimore used to be the most luxurious place in town. Not anymore. It's lost the 'e' in its marquee sign and eviction notices just went out to its residents, a plethora of society's outcast inhabitants, who call the seedy hotel home. With the structure as dilapidated as its residents, this play is a moving and humorous look at everyday humanity and the ties that bind.

Review - Broadway's Rising Stars: The Names In Tomorrow's Papers
While the title of Town Hall's third annual production of Broadway's Rising Stars suggests a look into the future, I prefer to linger a bit in the present. With a cast consisting of 22 recent grads from such musical theatre savvy institutions as NYU, Carnegie Mellon, AMDA and The Cincinnati Conservatory, all hand picked by creator/writer/host Scott Siegel, his partner in both life and reviewing, Barbara, plus directors Emily Skinner and Scott Coulter, this was a night to treasure the youthful love of the type of songs and the styles of singing that have helped make musical theatre this city's major export to the world.
