I love the Gilbert & Sullivan operettas. That’s not something people normally admit in polite company, but it’s true. If there were a 12 step program for G&S (that’s what those of us in the know call Gilbert and Sullivan), I’d be eligible to attend, but I wouldn’t. I …

The Shen Yun Performing Arts show is a series of Chinese dances and performances, strung together with a common theme: “Falun Dafa is Good”.

When the regular-run movie theaters near where we live began to raise their prises, and it was suddenly costing us $15 or more for the two of us to go to a matinee, we started looking for a discount movie theater. We found The Picture Show at Merchant’s Walk, …

“The Importance of Being Earnest” is one on Oscar Wilde’s most clever and most fun plays. As us, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival has produced an excellent production of this send up of the English upper class. The production is properly British to the utmost degree.
This play is held in …

I absolutely love this theater, it has all the most amazing games and even a great little malt shop style restaurant. The theater itself has over 10 movie theater rooms and the chairs are super comfortable. You can easily stretch out your legs without even bothering the person in …

When I heard that RENT was closing its run on Broadway in August of 2008, I was devastated. I never had a chance to see it in New York, but I was a big fan of the soundtrack and the 2005 movie adaption. I soon discovered that RENT would …

To begin with, entering the Theatre Royal Drury Lane as a member of the audience is a whole experience on its own! However this was not a reason for me booking tickets to go and watch the musical ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ as I became fascinated and aware …

My husband and I took my daughter to Cirque Du Soleil’s Mystere for her birthday and had a great time! We chose to see Mystere because it seemed like it would be the most kid friendly as it is a very whimsical performance. There was no real …

I recently had the opportunity to visit the famous Springer Opera House in Columbus, GA. I have to say that the atmosphere is unlike anything I have ever experienced. I was met at the door by a man in tails and a top hat underneath giant oil lamps. The …

Some cities have tourist spots named cityname-eye such as Singapore-eye, London-eye, Tokyo-eye, etc. All of them concern with vertical giant wheels equipped with seats with which people can experience seeing the view from the height. But Taipei-eye is different. It is a place where you can enjoy traditional Chinese theater.
The …

“All the world’s a stage, and all men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.”
I have always heard this line. The line is, no doubt, a quite famous one. And I …

I work at Ultra-Star cinemas in Poway, California and for that reason I know that this theater is a very reliable place. I have only worked here for a matter of 4 months but I have seen all of the hard work and time put into this place. It …

This show is absolutely hilarious! Of course, that is the appeal, it’s a musical comedy. It’s probably one of the funniest, if not THE funniest musical comedy I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen some good ones!
The soundtrack itself is great. With song titles such as “The Internet is for …

The Main Art Theatre is located at the corner of 11 Mile Road and Main Street in Royal Oak, Michigan. This is the area’s best place to see independent films. If you are looking for something alternative, this is it. I love the personality of the theatre, and it …

I have just been to The Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre in London for the first time. The park is lovely to walk through with lakes, a bandstand and gardens to enjoy. The theatre itself is very impressive. The entrance area has a licensed bar which also serves snacks. …

My family and I went to see the newest ballet at the Auditorium theatre this weekend. The Kirov Ballet and Orchestra was putting on their famous Swan Lake. I dont know why they waited so long to bring this to Chicago. It was the best ballet I …

This theater is beautiful, and is located in the lot that was once the Winnetka Drive-in theaters.
It’s an “all stadium” theater, so the seats are nice and comfy, with that stadium seating that allows you to sit anywhere in the theater comfortably, without having to worry about …

The Paramount Theatre is an old theatre that was recently restored, thanks to many generous donations of local Charlottesvillians. The theatre is beautiful with beautiful frescos on some of the walls and a lovely green and gold motif. The seating makes for easy viewing, and the acoustics are …

There’s a bit of a stigma which Arizona carries about the age of its citizens. Simply put, many people in other states view it as an oversized retirement community because of the healthy dry air and abundance of sunshine. Barleen’s Arizona Opry derives all of its success from this …

“King John” is one of those troublesome plays written by Shakespeare. It isn’t often staged. I saw it recently for the second time and found the current production at the Oregon Shakespeare festival to be an excellent production that did not drag. In fact it was extremely exciting.
I loved …

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 …

I attended the Houston Symphony’s performance of Sergei Prokofiev’s “Peter and the Wolf” at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands TX, and the experience was enchanting! This was a lovely performance that was energetic and well performed. The director John Morris Russell, was engaging …

I saw the Phantom of the Opera on Broadway, and it was an awesome play. The story was about a young chorus girl named Christine who captures the interest of the Phantom of the Opera- a deformed man who lives beneath the great Paris Opera House. The music is …

This play is simply stunning.
I saw it at the National Theatre in December 2008, but I believe it is now opening at a new Theatre in the West End.
War Horse is based on a children’s novel by Michael Morpurgo - but don’t let that influence your opinion, the content …

Based on Gregory Maguire’s novel, “Wicked” tells the story of the witches of Oz, Glinda and Elphaba, before Dorothy drops in. A prequel, if you will, to Frank L. Baum’s The Wizard of Oz.
The musical production is specatacular and lives up to the hype it has caused in …

Joan Holden’s theatrical adaptation of Nickled and Dimed is the freshest, most innovative and most thought-provoking performance I have ever seen. Period. When it ran in Cleveland, Ohio a few years ago, it continually sold out and kept being extended due to popular demand. I was …

Mall of Asia (MOA) is the biggest mall here in the Philippines, it boasts of hundreds of stores and restaurants to choose from. Plus they have the famous IMAX theater which is a first here in the country. I didn’t know that they also had a 3D theater, so …

I am reviewing the small town Riviera movie theater, specifically located in Emmetsburg, Iowa. For years, this movie theater was supremely outdated, run down, and unattractive. Recently, it got a huge makeover. The sound system has been updated so movie goers can officially hear base. In regards to the …

I have fallen in love with the Majestic Theater here in Vero Beach, Florida. The newly revamped theater is just such a classy affair now from the decor to the staff in their sharp uniforms. We just love how friendly everyone is and the pride they take in …

Russian dancers are the best in the world, and the Kirov Ballet from the Marinski Theater in St. Petersburg and the Bolshoi Ballet in Moscow are the best ballet companies in the world. The Bolshoi’s style is more athletic, masculine, and vigorous; they are at their best in …

I should preface this review by stating that over the years, I’ve seen over 100 shows on and off Broadway. I’m a huge theatre fan, loving everything from the classics to the little known shows. I’ve seen my fair share of wonderful productions and complete embarrassments. I’ve also been …

I have been going to the Regency theater since I was a little child and it has always been such a great time going but I had since then moved away. I had came back to town to visit friends and family and decided to go to the Regency …

This current production of Shakespeare’s “Merry Wives of Windsor” ad the Oregon Shakespeare festival is one of the best I’ve seen. I’ve seen several productions in the past and have enjoyed them all, but this was special because of G. Valmont Thomas as Sir John Falstaff, Knight.
This play was …

I have been to two different Regal Cinemas. One of them resides in the mall that is about twenty minutes away from my house and the other resides in Queens, New York. The one that I have gone to the most is the one that is closest to my …

I took my children for the first time to Broadway Dinner Theater about 14 years ago. We have returned every single year since then. We usually go to see a couple of their Christmas productions. We usually see the adult selection they have during the holiday and also see …

This is a remarkable play and an innovative social project. In 1998, Mathew Shepard was beaten and left tied to a fence to die in Laramie, Wyoming, because he was gay and he revealed this fact to the wrong two people. This outrageous hate crime horrified the …

I don’t normally go to the movie theater here in town. But, this past weekend was our anniversary and I didn’t want to just take my wife to dinner and be home by 7. So, we decided to splurge a bit and I took her to see a movie …

In the Federal Building on Magnolia Street here in Bellingham, Washington is a little know, little used courtroom. I love it. It’s beautiful.

This was one of the highlights from our last beach trip. My husband and I had a blast at the Dixie Stampede in Myrtle Beach SC. It is family friendly so bring the kids. There is something for every age group to enjoy!
I will say that this is a …

While I have been to quite a few musicals my favourite one to date has been Wicked. I’m sure that it helps that I’m already an enthusiast for all things “Wizard of Oz”, but this musical has all of the ingredients for a successful broadway show.
I saw Wicked …

Henry VI: Blood and Roses was an amazing production that captured the art of the theatre and Shakespeare’s timeless histories. Entering the theatre, one would be intrigued by the props and outlook of the stage. A mysterious feeling overtakes the scenery even when the play has not started yet. …

It is absolutely the hottest place in the city if we talk about movies. For me, Screenville Cinema is the place to relax and unwind.
It may not be largest movie house in the Tagbilaran City but I surely believe that is …

If you live in the Dearborn area and you are bored, you will be glad to know that a Star Theater is nearby. It is conveniently located steps away from the Fairlane Town Center, the Hyatt hotel and lots of really great restaurant around. So before or after watching …

To be honest, Mountain Dew Soda is not my style. I’ve tried it, and I don’t like it. It has an odd citrus flavor that is terribly unappealing, and it looks like something I can’t write about. There’s nothing I like about Mountain Dew Soda, except …
