Mystere was the last of the shows I went to on my trip to Las Vegas. “Mystere” and Cirque du Soleil’s “The Beatles’ LOVE” were playing in casinos next door to each other, and after reading some bad reviews of “LOVE “we decided on Mystere. As was the usual …

Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand
Rarely does the Oregon Shakespeare Festival stage a non-Shakespeare play on the outdoor Elizabethan Theatre. I was privileged to see a production recently. I’ve seen Cyrano before live and enjoyed the play, but it wasn’t a favorite of mine.
On the night I attended Marco Barricelli, cast as Cyrano, was …

The play ‘Wicked’ is a brilliant masterpiece (directed by Joe Mantello) that will surely sweep the next generation of cultured Americans off their feet!

Wicked the Musical

I saw Wicked …
The Lion King At The Lyceum Theatre

Every Saturday night at 11:30 p.m., the freaks of Florida somehow find their way to The Beach Theatre for their weekly dose of Rocky Horror. I blame extensive advertising during shows and on the Interchangeable parts website, http://ip.rhps.org/.
