Godspell – Theatre Review: Phoenix Theatre’s Hormel Theatre, Phoenix
After a five-year run off-Broadway, then a further year on Broadway, Godspell may rank as one of the more successful though oddest musicals ever to emerge from the Great White Way. Consider the following: It has no structure in the traditional sense; there’s no plot; no setting; no sense of time; plus, it’s a religious […]

Super Troopers 2 – Film Review
How time flies when you’re having fun. Then, after seventeen years, there’s a sequel to Super Troopers.

It was a year ago this month when Valley Youth Theatre surprised us all with an ambitious production of the Broadway musical, The Secret Garden.

Low Down Dirty Blues – Theatre Review: Arizona Theatre Company, Herberger Theater Center, Phoenix
When it was first performed, Low Down Dirty Blues was a musical revue of raucous, gritty, gut-bucket, good-time, dirty blues that ran for roughly 80 to 85 minutes, without intermission. It was set late at night in a Chicago Jazz joint when most of the customers had left. Its cast consisted of two female singers, […]
