What did our critic think of SOUR ANGELICA at Out Of The Box Opera?

Review: LES MISERABLES Offers Hope for the Hopeless(ly Devoted) at Dr. Phillips Center
Orlando: Albert Gutierrez on June 26, 2024

At the height of its fame, the musical Les Misérables was the Dorsia of Broadway, a hot-ticket event that reached Hamilton levels of excessive prices, elite A-list attendees, and legions of fans who’d revisit the show through repeat viewings, memorization of the cast recording, and fierce debates of West End vs. Broadway performers.

Review: PETER PAN at Broadway San Jose
San Francisco / Bay Area: Linda Hodges on June 26, 2024

What did our critic think of PETER PAN at Broadway San Jose?

Review: American Repertory Theater's GATSBY is Great

Review: Death of Classical Presents BEETHOVEN STRING QUARTET OP. 132 at Green-Wood Cemetery
Cabaret: Eliana Sara on June 26, 2024

Death of Classical is known for curating classical music and opera performances throughout NYC’s prettiest crypts and cemeteries. This performance of Beethoven’s Final String Quartet was a part of DoC’s Angel’s Share concert series, which took place at Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery from Thursday through Saturday night.

Review: SPRING AWAKENING by Arts Bonita Actors Theatre
Ft. Myers/Naples: Elizabeth James on June 26, 2024

SPRING AWAKENING by Arts Bonita Actors Theatre, directed by Kody C Jones, tells the heartbreaking, bittersweet story of teenagers coming of age and dealing with every struggle that comes with it. 

Review: WENDY'S PETER PAN at Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum
Los Angeles: Harker Jones on June 26, 2024

While WENDY’S PETER PAN would be better served by trimming the fat, focusing on more sharpened performances, and allowing its performers room to breathe, children, despite its evening start time, will likely appreciate the show more than adults who will take notice of its distracting bumps and peculiarities.

Review: HERITAGE GRAND RESTAURANT & PIZZA BAR-A Superb Destination in Midtown
Food + Wine: Marina Kennedy on June 26, 2024

A restaurant definitely impresses when you are telling your friends about it and making plans to return soon. That’s just what will happen when you visit Heritage Grand Bakery, Grand Restaurant & Pizza Bar.

Review: GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY at The Paramount
Seattle: Jay Irwin on June 26, 2024

Dear Readers, I will admit that “Girl From the North Country”, currently playing at The Paramount, is a tough one to get into. It’s not a happy little romp and not structured like your typical musical. But if you can get past the bleak and let those voices wash over you, it’s a tragically beautiful ride, assuming they can work out some of those sound mixing issues in the theater.

Review: Zoë Van Tieghem's OUT OF THE BOX at Green Room 42 Was Joyously Queer
Cabaret: Rose Singer on June 26, 2024

Zoë Van Tieghem, no stranger to the performing arts, gracefully strode onto the stage on June 18th, where she hosted a wonderfully gay evening at the Green Room 42. From the first note of her opening number to the final notes of the closer, she makes performing look effortless.

Review: THE NEXT GENERATION FESTIVAL: BUNDESJUGENDBALLETT, Royal Opera House
UK / West End: Matthew Paluch on June 26, 2024

The Next Generation Festival continues at the Royal Opera House with two performances by the BundesJugendBallett AKA German National Youth Ballet. The group was founded by Hamburg Ballet director and chief choreographer, John Neumeier in 2011, and has been directed by Kevin Haigen since its inauguration.

Review: UNCANNY: I KNOW WHAT I SAW, Theatre Royal Drury Lane and On Tour
UK / West End: Cindy Marcolina on June 26, 2024

Back in 2021, Danny Robins spoke to the void in the shed in his garden asking “Do ghosts exist?”. The world of paranormal podcasts never was the same. People were quick to join in online, sending reports and building a network of experiences, lifting the series to a cult media of sorts. Robins went on to write the astoundingly successful celebrity bait 2:22 A Ghost Story and produce many more seasons of the spooky pod for the BBC before turning them into live shows and serialised television.

Review: SURRENDER, Arcola Theatre
UK / West End: Niamh Jones on June 26, 2024

A woman’s story is a valuable thing, the trials of experience typically being viewed as under discussed even within modern literature. Amongst these trials are the very real challenges that come with raising a baby, especially when a single parent.

Review: THE DAO OF THE UNREPRESENTATIVE BRITISH CHINESE EXPERIENCE, Soho Theatre
UK / West End: Josh Maughan on June 26, 2024

From the minute Daniel York Loh finished his opening monologue in Kakilang’s The Dao of the Unrepresentative British Chinese Experience, I knew this would be a piece of theatre that wouldn’t allow me to remain comfortable, drift off or stop questioning my own beliefs for a second.

Review: THE CONSTITUENT, The Old Vic
UK / West End: Aliya Al-Hassan on June 26, 2024

Matthew Warchus' production focuses on a single back-bench MP trying to balance help and professional distance with her increasingly unstable constituent.

Review: STRAIGHT TO THE HEART: A TRIBUTE TO RODGERS & HART at Dezart Performs
Palm Springs: Gilmore Rizzo on June 25, 2024

What did our critic think of STRAIGHT TO THE HEART: MUSIC OF RODGERS & HART at Dezart Performs?

Review: NOW CIRCA THEN Closes the Season at Capital Stage
Sacramento: Courtney Symes on June 25, 2024

Capital Stage is closing out its nineteenth season with a charming story of healing and self-discovery. Now Circa Then by Carly Mensch is a clever blend of worlds: past and present, immigrant and citizen, passion and apathy. In this show, life imitates art and the lines between those worlds blur, encouraging us to delve inward and examine our own motivations.
