‘The Winter’s Tale’ at Great Lakes Theater Is a Tale of Two Genres (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“The Winter’s Tale” is widely classified as one of Shakespeare’s “problem plays.” It’s classified as such because it can’t be neatly labeled into the categories in which The Bard’s tales are typically sorted. The first three acts feature a dark, psychological tragedy, but the final two acts are comedic and magical. This sudden change in tone can, understandably, pose a challenge for theater companies. In their production of “The Winter’s Tale,” Great Lakes Theater proves up for the challenge. Th
‘Daphne’s Dive’ at Dobama Gives a Shallow Dive Into Deep Waters (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In Daphne’s Dive, a beloved northern Philly dive bar, outsiders congregate. They knock back shots and swig beers as they prepare for a protest, dream up their next painting, plan their next job, or complain about their neighbors. Under a string of Puerto Rican flags and a taxidermied deer head draped with garland, the patrons become a sort of found family. But families can carry a lot of baggage, and this found family packs the bar so full with theirs that a 110-minute show is not nearly enough
Spooky Season Comes Early to Cain Park with ‘The Addams Family Musical’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Addams family, with their love of the macabre, their fascination with death and dying and their extreme shirking of societal norms, should be–by all means–a family you’d seek to avoid. Yet, this fiercely devoted, unerringly loyal and surprisingly wholesome family continues to delight audiences with their irreverent humor, as is displayed in Cain Park’s latest production of “The Addams Family Musical.” The musical comedy with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and book by Marshall Brickman and
Porthouse Presents a Magical, Mystical and Whimsical ‘Brigadoon’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“If you love someone deeply enough, anything is possible… even miracles.” This line of dialogue serves as a fitting summary for “Brigadoon,” a classic written during the Golden Age of musical theater that is now being staged at Porthouse Theatre. It is romantic, it is idealistic and it is charming. It is not, however, all that logical. The plot follows Tommy and Jeff, two American men on a hunting trip in the Scottish Highlands. After getting lost in the mist, the two friends stumble upon Brigad
convergence–continuum Gives a Peek Behind the Curtains with ‘macbitches’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The theater is no stranger to examining itself, staging shows that pull back the curtains to explore some of the drama behind the drama. In the case of “macbitches” at convergence–continuum, that drama is downright vicious. For the female acting majors at UMNC, the role of Lady Macbeth is practically to die for. When incoming freshman Hailey lands the role, a few upperclassmen invite her over to their apartment to “celebrate.” The women sling back drinks as they scrutinize their new leading lady
