★★☆☆☆ Review: In Pieces by 7/8 Musical Collective

All of this is captured in Joey Contreras’ 2020 musical In Pieces, which follows eight individuals … Continue reading ★★☆☆☆ Review: In Pieces by 7/8 Musical Collective

But while just about every mother goes through this, very little of it has been shown onstage and onscreen, and … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: The Fourth Trimester by Checkpoint Theatre

In the tale of Arachne for example, a talented but proud weaver is cursed by Athena after proving to be more … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: Inconsequential Goddess by Edith Podesta (The Studios 2022)
