Theater Review: TOPDOG/UNDERDOG (The Old Globe / San Diego)
DEALING WITH THE HAND THEY WERE GIVEN Suzan-Lori Parks stacks the deck against two brothers whose love, rivalry, and hunger for a better life turn one rigged game into another There are only two actors onstage in Suzan-Lori Parks’ Topdog/Underdog, but there is nothing small about the world they create. Now playing at The Old…

Off-Broadway Review: SLAM FRANK (Orpheum)
FRANKLY, IT’S A SLAM An outrageous Afro-Latin hip-hop reinvention of Anne Frank goes gleefully where you can’t believe it dares to go Wait, what? Slam Frank, which opened at the Orpheum Theatre on October 4, is an “Anne-Frank Afro-Latin Hip-Hop Musical”? Its logo is the silhouette of a young girl wearing the yellow Jewish star,…

Theater Review: BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL (Umbrella Stage Company, Concord, MA)
BATTY AS HELL Excellent performances struggle against muddled storytelling and sound problems in this production of the cult musical The entire time I watched Bat Boy: The Musical at Umbrella Stage in Concord, I was trying to place it within what I know of the theatrical tradition. It’s like Pygmalion, I thought, as mom Meredith…

Theater Review: OPERATION MINCEMEAT (National Tour / CIBC Theatre / Chicago)
DEAD MAN WALKING—STRAIGHT INTO THE THIRD REICH A corpse, a preposterous plan, and five tireless performers make this British spy caper an enormously funny exercise in controlled chaos Monty Python’s influence is all over Operation Mincemeat, the smash-hit musical making the first stop of its North American tour at the CIBC Theatre in Chicago, after…

Theater Review: COVENANT (SpeakEasy Stage Company / Boston)
THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS Strong performances and eerie stage effects cannot entirely clarify a mystery that depends on carefully controlled deception A terrific performance by Crystin Gilmore as the stern, Bible-thumping, yet guilt-ridden Mama, along with evocative special effects, makes Covenant, a Southern Gothic about the battle between good and evil, a riveting…
-
Theater Review: KAIJU (The Road & BroadStage / North Hollywood)
MONSTERING THE ARTS Giant monsters and theatrical pretensions collide in Dan Caffrey’s gleefully unhinged new play Has the spark seemed to have left the LA theater scene? Does a night at the theater mean a choice between commercial dreck or heavy messaging? Are you weary of your thoughts being provoked yet again? Well, consider adding…

Theater Review: WICKED (National Tour)
SOMETHING WICKED GOOD THIS WAY COMES The national tour lands in Boston with enough brains, heart, and theatrical magic to remind us why this musical continues to defy gravity It’s appropriate that the national tour of Wicked has returned to Boston—it’s the home territory for author Gregory Maguire, whose novel is the foundation for one of…

FREE SPINS NO DEPOSIT: How Bonus Codes, Wagering Rules and Max Cashouts Work in 2026
150 spins sounds like a lot. It might be $15. No deposit free spins skip the transfer step, but the rest of the process: spin value, wagering, eligible games, expiry, the cashout ceiling, all of it runs exactly the same way. An 150 free spins no deposit offer with visible terms is a different product…

Theater Review: I’M GONNA MARRY YOU TOBEY MAGUIRE (Refracted Theatre Company / Chicago)
WITH THIS RING, I THEE KIDNAP A deranged celebrity fantasy gets plenty of laughs from three fearless performers, but Samantha Hurley’s comedy runs out of ideas before it runs out of steam In a basement bedroom in the year 2004, a CRT television blares clips from Tobey Maguire movies on a loop. The wall above…

Skewing to a younger-than-usual…
-
Theater Review: BONNIE’S LAST FLIGHT (Rivendell Theatre Ensemble / Chicago)
A LITTLE TOO MUCH CARRY-ON The crew earns its wings; the script, not quite There’s no denying Rivendell’s commitment to the bit in its production of Eliza Bent’s Bonnie’s Last Flight, the final show of their season. The front staff are clad in flight attendant garb. The ushers wear hazard vests. The audience is separated…
-
Theater Review: OH, MARY! (First National Tour)
THE WAR BETWEEN ABRAHAM AND MARY IS ANYTHING BUT CIVIL Cole Escola’s gleefully unhinged historical farce gives Alaska Thunderfuck ample opportunity to make a spectacular fool of the First Lady Historians tend to agree that Abraham Lincoln did care deeply for his wife, Mary Todd, and was emotionally attached to her, though their complex 23-year…

SEEDANCE API REVIEW: Creating AI-Generated Theater Trailers that Reflect the Actual Production
Theater companies rely on promotional trailers to attract audiences, but producing a compelling video isn’t always easy. Professional filming can be expensive, rehearsal footage may be limited, and a production photograph doesn’t necessarily convey the excitement of a live performance. Seedance API offers another option. By using existing photographs, posters, and rehearsal clips, theater marketing…

Theater Review: THE BED TRICK (Chance Theater, Anaheim)

FROM LAST TRAIN TO FIRST LIGHT: USING SEEDANCE 3.0 TO ENVISION STAGE LIGHTING
A bench, a station clock and a doorway would be enough for the scene I have in mind. The last train has gone. Nobody enters, but somewhere beyond the door the night begins to lift. I would want the audience to notice the empty seat differently by the end, even though no furniture has moved….
