She Kills Monsters
Director Erika Sasseville and Black Dirt Theater have brought a rousing, ribald romp to the Hastings Middle School stage.
Born with Teeth
Christine Sarkes and Erika Sasseville (a mother/daughter review) What do two of the greatest literary figures of the Elizabethan era–William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe–create when they spend hours together writing a play? The answer: Fire and magic! That is what the audience witnessed during opening night of Born With Teeth by Liz Duffy Adams at…
Georgiana & Kitty: Christmas at Pemberley
It’s every Jane Austen fan’s favorite time of year! The Bennets, Bingleys, Darcys, and Wickhams (well, one of them anyway) are finally back at the Jungle Theater in Georgiana & Kitty: Christmas at Pemberley playing now through December 23rd.
Tales from the Fiefdom: A Medieval Musical in One Act
Tales from the Fiefdom is a cockentrice of a show, tasty and absurd.
Erotica for Houseplants
Returning Minnesota Fringe Festival fan-favorite creator/performer, Tom Reed, is back with a brand new one-man show: Erotica for Houseplants. Playing at Mixed Blood Theatre in Minneapolis, Erotica for Houseplants is a glorious hybridization of a love letter to home gardening, a cabaret of botanical love-song covers, and a series of erotic stories by (and for) houseplants that are steamier than a tropical arboretum.
Shrek the Musical
If you’re looking for some family fun this summer, you can’t go wrong with Shrek the Musical now playing at Artistry in Bloomington.
Disney’s Frozen
by Erika Sasseville Theater is back! I’m so thrilled to be writing my first review of the pandemic about this spectacular production. Disney’s Frozen is playing at the Orpheum Theatre now through October 20th, so if you’re looking for a magical night out – with or without your kids – I highly recommend catching this…
Twelfth Night
by Christine Sarkes The cast and creative team of Guthrie Theater’s Twelfth Night squeeze every ounce of humor, romance, and physicality out of Shakespeare’s great comedy; it is a zany, madcap delight. Many aspects of this production were so well and cleverly done that I can’t find a single negative thing to say. When we were…
Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley
It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that a “Christmas at Pemberley” play performed at the Jungle Theater, must be, in fact, delightful. For the third year in a row, Jungle Theater presents a Christmas tale set in the world of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice by Lauren Gunderson and Margot Melcon. Playing now through December 29th, Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley reunites much of the original 2017 cast and creative team for a rousing, hysterical, and joyous affair.
Tartuffe
Nearly 400 years have passed since Moliére first brought Tartuffe to Versailles, but the intervening centuries have not dulled the message at the heart of the story: beware the hypocrite who pretends piety to disguise duplicity. (lumin)theatre lab presents the French neoclassical comedy directed by Diogo Lopes, playing now through November 23rd in Hastings, MN on the second floor of Eye Candy REFind.
