This charming show brings on the holiday CHEER without screaming IT'S CHRISTMAS!!! did our critic think of A SHERLOCK HOLMES CHRISTMAS at The Archive Theatre?

THE (ONE ACT) PLAY THAT GOES WRONG, five stars; Murder at Haversham Manor, one star, would not recommend. Well done, Austin Playhouse, well done.

What did our critic think of CHICAGO THE MUSICAL Still Dazzles

Michael Dalen directs Blue Men Mike Brown, Meridian, Josh Wills, and Blue Man Captain Adam Zuick for the tour that bangs the drums at Bass Concert Hall.

Langert’s THE PACT is a fun launch for Jarrott Productions after a three year unplanned pandemic hiatus.

We returned this week for Part 2 of ZACH's production of THE INHERITANCE. As I sat ensconced as comfortably as possible in my seat for Part 2, I felt the warmth of familiarity with the characters I'd come to know from Part 1 and thought to myself how lovely a well written serial piece might go over in the world of live theatre. It's an investment, there are many reasons it wouldn't work, and as the history of theatre has shown us, the rare six hour production had best be epic. This was true of ANGELS IN AMERICA, but it's not always the case with Lopez's THE INHERITANCE.

What did our critic think of ZACH'S THE INHERITANCE PART I at ZACH Kleburg Theatre? As a young Puerto Rican growing up in Florida, playwright Matthew Lopez read in a magazine about the acclaimed Merchant Ivory film adapted from E.M. Forster's novel Howards End, and asked his mom to take him to see the film. Since his outlets as a young man were books, theatre and movies, it stands to reason that Howards End and E.M. Forster play such a literally integral role in Lopez's sprawling theatrical adaptation of the novel. His mother later also bought Lopez the book. He fell in love with it, and fell in love with Forster or, more specifically, Forster's queerness.

Treat yourself to ZACH’s A CHRISTMAS CAROL. It’s like flipping the switch on the Times Square Christmas tree — it illuminates the season!

There's a silver lining for theatre fans during this pandemic stuff, and it's ZACH's Spring Concert series SONGS UNDER THE STARS. I attended last week, and you have one more weekend to catch Austin theatre icons Judy Arnold, Kia Dawn Fulton, Roderick Sanford, and Janis Stinson for the 'Gospel Down by the Riverside,' segment in the SONGS UNDER THE STARS series.

Gift yourself with the Tony nominated COME FROM AWAY.  It's simply marvelous.

Shaw's THE MAN OF DESTINY Delights at THE ARCHIVE THEATRE. This theatre company is taking a lead on delivering Austin with some top notch classics.

A great production with a stellar lead giving us an incredible voice that may be as close to the real thing as we can get.

SHE LOVES ME is a rare gem in the 21st century. 

Based on the 1960 movie directed by Roger Corman, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS by writer Howard Ashman and composer Alan Menken, is the marriage of a 60's love story and the apocalyptic sci-fi films of the era set to music.

50TH anniversary JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR dazzles at Bass Concert Hall
