Ryne Nardecchia - a product of the Humphreys School of Musical Theatre and recent Texas State grad - returns to Houston to play one of comics' most iconic characters and possibly America's most famous canine, Snoopy, in the Theatre Under the Stars production of THE WORLD ACCORDING TO SNOOPY.

Intrepid Fringe opens a Steampunk, 50 Shades of Shakespeare production of MEASURE FOR MEASURE at The Black Labrador Pub.

The three Alisons of FUN HOME will take the Hobby Center stage next week as the Tony-winning musical opens in Houston. Today we catch up with the college-aged Medium Alison, Abby Corrigan, to talk about trust, travel and the showstopper 'Changing My Major,' soon to be added to your Broadway playlist (if it's not there already).  

What happens two years later, when the media leaves and the milk cartons fade, for the grieving mother of a kidnapped child? What next for a 42-year-old linguist who discovers her unborn baby may never be able to speak? What dream do immigrants actually find in America? Next Iteration Theater Company explores all this and more in the 2nd Annual Intercultural Play Reading Series.

The much-beloved musical DREAMGIRLS, which delves into the backstage drama of fictional girl group The Dreams, is coming to the Hobby, with Zonya Love tackling the role of Effie White, this April.

Conductor Steven Jarvi and concertmaster Scott St. John lead the orchestra for 'Double Trouble' featuring the world premiere of Alexander Miller's ROCOmoji, Saverio Mercadante's Concerto for Flute in E-minor, Gustav Holst's Green Brook Suite and Arnold Schoenberg's Verklarte Nacht.

Step-sisters in a magical trailer park, a clash between past and present (that's a realtor's nightmare), an exploration of race and family in segregated Cleveland, a murderous family in the American West -- sounds like this year's finalists for The Landing Theatre Company's New American Voices Play Reading Series.

With the National Theatre of Scotland's production of LET THE RIGHT ONE IN coming to town, I approached with trepidation. How would that quiet, atmospheric film translate onto the stage. The answer, it turns out, is damn well. Jack Thorne's LET THE RIGHT ONE IN is damn close to a perfect play.
