Big Fish is a story that dives into a myriad of life experiences. The themes throughout the show, from generational disagreements to being true to yourself, create a narrative that is deep and thought-provoking. I was simply enchanted by the depth of the performance.

Sam Akpro has returned with a new single 'Chicago Town' and a sound that reveals yet another dimension to his ever-expanding capability.

Stephen Sondheim’s Sunday in the Park with George opened at Santa Fe Playhouse on Saturday and all I can say is wow. The 1984 musical features music and lyrics by Sondheim and book by James Lapin.  Inspired by the French pointillist  painter Georges Seurat’s painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, the plot revolves around George (deftly played by Playhouse regular David Stallings), who immerses himself deeply in painting his masterpiece, and his great-grandson (also named George, also played by Stallings), a conflicted and cynical contemporary artist.
