REVIEW: TheatreSquared’s “Ann” tells a story that humanizes our incessant political cycle

  • Monday, Feb 24, 2020 ·  

It’s frantic, and it’s thrilling theater. It’s also quite funny, and sometimes shockingly off-kilter.

AT WALTON ARTS CENTER: ‘The Play That Goes Wrong,’ now at the WAC, goes side-splittingly right in riotous show

It’s breathtakingly funny, and a dose of pure theater escapism.

AT WALTON ARTS CENTER: ‘Margaritaville’ musical a breezy but basic show aimed squarely at a carefree crowd

REVIEW: Small story looks at the bigger picture in TheatreSquared’s close up of ‘Native Gardens’

  • Monday, Oct 7, 2019 ·

  • Monday, Aug 19, 2019 ·  

The new TheatreSquared looks brilliant, and we’ll talk about it for some time to come.

REVIEW: Musical theater classic ‘Les Miserables’ closes out WAC season by going big (and going dark)

Life can be depressing and funny at all once, and that duality is the central idea of the show’s best number.

REVIEW: TheatreSquared’s ‘The Wolves’ musters a bit of bite in an unconventionally conventional tale

  • Tuesday, Mar 5, 2019 ·  

Depending on where you sit, which night you attend or where your focus happens to be at any given moment, you get to see a slightly different play.

REVIEW: TheatreSquared production takes light-hearted (but perhaps necessary) look at heavy subject

  • Tuesday, Jan 22, 2019 ·

REVIEW: TheatreSquared’s new production of ‘Skeleton Crew’ doesn’t skimp on emotional moments
