Broadway Review: PETER PAN GOES WRONG (Ethel Barrymore Theatre)
YOU’LL BE HOOKED The title says it all. Based on the play Peter Pan by JM Barrie, Peter Pan Goes Wrong by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields is about a stage production of the children’s classic that goes wrong. Horribly wrong. Hilariously wrong. Hurtfully wrong. Just wrong. Currently playing at the Ethel Barrymore…

WHAT’S SO WONDERFUL? THIS REVIVAL OF WOMAN OF THE YEAR I’m jealous of New York Musical lovers.

Theater Review: LOCUSTS HAVE NO KING (New Conservatory Theatre Center in San Francisco)
A GAY PLAGUE OF LOCUSTS From the Book of Proverbs: Locusts have no king. But they all move forward in formation. Rough translation: Locusts have no king so they lead a life of smallness and conformity — a crowd mentality. It’s also a metaphor for The West Coast premiere of Queer, Puerto Rican and Dominican…

Rancho Mirage Theater Review: JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT (Desert Theatricals at the Rancho Mirage Amphitheater)
DESERT MUSICAL IS AN OASIS IN THE DESERT I have often proclaimed that Andrew Lloyd Webber’s best work was in his pre-1980 collaborations with Tim Rice.

Cabaret Review: SURVIVING CABARET (Sharon McNight at Green Room 42 in NYC)
40 YEARS OF STORIED SONGS When a songstress entitles her show Surviving Cabaret, one can expect a lot of sad ballads and weepy blues. Not so with Sharon McNight’s new show at Green Room 42.
