Theater Wit’s “The New Sincerity” was disappointing
*** Recommended *** I was kind of disappointed with “The New Sincerity”. Although the cast did a good job, I thought the story took itself way too seriously. I couldn’t relate to the selfish, shallow and rather smug characters, probably because I don’t have anything in common with them. There were some funny bits to…
Kokandy Productions’ “Heathers: The Musical” has Wickedly Clever Lyrics”
**** Recommended **** Kokandy Productions is rapidly earning a reputation for outstanding work. Their new production, “Heathers: The Musical”, is no exception. The story, based on a cult classic film from the ‘80s, might not be your cup of tea, but the talented cast will reach out and pull you right in. The music sounds…
“Trip the Light Fantastic: The Making of SuperStrip”
Although I normally review theater, not dance, when I had the opportunity to attend the premiere performance of “Trip the Light Fantastic: The Making of SuperStrip”, I snapped it up. I’m always thrilled to see a unique dance performance – and this truly was unique. My friend Crista and I were in awe! I give…

Mark Roberts’ Uncle Jim is mean as a Snake in “New Country”
**** Recommended **** “New Country” is a “rags to riches, then turn on the people who got you there” story set in the country music industry. The good ole boys in “New Country” are vulgar and profane. The story is funny, but the biting humor disguises a lot of acerbic truths. “New Country” did make…
The Towle Theater’s “Crashing with Flamingos” is Quirky and Fun
**** Recommended **** Towle Theater’s new production, Jim Henry’s new play “Crashing with Flamingos”, is a quirky little play about married life and unexpected guests. It’s funny yet poignant, and it has a lot to say. Just when I thought I’d figured out where it was going, off it went in a whole new direction. …

Steppenwolf’s Production of “The Compass” is Both Creative and Unique
**** Highly Recommended **** “The Compass” absolutely blew me away! It is unique and one of the most creative plays I’ve ever seen. It’s just too bad there are so few public performances – and limited seating at those. If I had any influence with Steppenwolf at all, I’d recommend they extend “The Compass” which…
