Review: MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL at Orpheum Theatre


by Steve Murray - December 19, 2025

What did our critic think of MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL at Orpheum Theatre? The appeal, based on the audience, is the acknowledgment of the song snippets – an “I know that song” reward. But the conceit grows thin and becomes one big cheat....

Review: MONTY PYTHON'S SPAMALOT at Kennedy Center's Eisenhower Theater

Review Roundup: What Did the Critics Think of Cole Escola's OH, MARY!?


by Aliya Al-Hassan - December 19, 2025

Oh, Mary! is an uproariously dark comedy about a miserable, suffocated Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination.
