2018 brought in a number of popular shows and events from the stages of Philadelphia and suburbs, right down to the Jersey Shore. Wish I could have seen them all. However, www.broadwayworld.com was there to see so many amazing people and creative teams bring out their best as my BWW colleagues also weigh in on their favorites. It was a difficult to choose from so many great offerings. So here are my picks.

Eagle Theatre's season finale, The Spitfire Grill - The Musical, opens tonight! But, there is more than just holiday magic cooking at South Jersey's only year-round professional equity theatre. This non-profit has decided to take the season of giving to the next level by spreading its philanthropic wings. Throughout the run of The Spitfire Grill - The Musical, November 16th - December 16th, actors from the production will be participating in a post-performance basket donation. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to another local non-profit organization, AVANZAR, formerly known as Atlantic County's The Women's Center, dedicated to empowering individuals and families by working to secure their physical safety, emotional well-being, and individual freedom.

Eagle Theatre's upcoming musical centers around a 'small town with big heart,' claims Caitlin Geisser, Director of The Spitfire Grill - The Musical.
