Theater Review: ‘Mamma Mia!,’ You Should Go Again
The show absolutely hilarious and it’s hard to single out any cast member because they’re all exceptional, especially Christine Sherrill and San Diego native Alisa Melendez
Theater Review: ‘Beetlejuice’
The show is hilariously funny, thanks in large part to both Kobler and Esler. Kobler’s Beetlejuice breaks the fourth wall, makes inappropriate statements and literally says whatever comes to his mind at any given time.
Theater Review: ‘Tina: The Tina Turner Musical’
Naomi Rodgers as Tina Turner has the voice, the moves and attitude down perfectly.
Theater Review: ‘Six’ is Pure Fun
The audience loved every second of the show and one of the (many) reasons is because it empowers these women.
Theater Review: ‘1776’
As crazy as the political landscape in America is right now, re-introducing the 1969 musical 1776 to the masses was one heck of a good idea. This version of the show, though, comes with a Twist: an all female and gender non-conforming cast.

Mean Girls the Musical, Tina Fey’s adaptation of her hit 2004 film, is currently strutting its stuff at San Diego’s Civic Theatre and if you’re a fan of the film or Fey, it’s definitely a must see.

Theater Review: Take a Trip to ‘Hadestown’
The show won eight Tony Awards for the 2018-19 season, and it’s easy to see why. The talent on both on stage and off is fierce, man.
Theater Review: ‘Come From Away’
Even though the circumstances surrounding the events are tragic, the show manages to be uplifting and full of hope.
Theater Review: ‘The Band’s Visit’
“Once not long ago, a group of musicians came to Israel from Egypt. You probably didn’t hear about it. It wasn’t very important.” Those sentences are projected on the stage as the show begins but don’t let those words mislead you. One of the wonderful things about theater is that
Theater Review: ‘Dear Evan Hansen’
It’s an emotional show and most will walk away relating to one of the characters. It’s an ‘of the moment’ musical and it’s one that you shouldn’t miss.
Theater Review: Blue Man Group is ‘Speechless’
The Blue Man Group played to a packed crowd on the recent visit to the Civic Theatre. And they’re touring show, Speechless, did not disappoint.
Theatre Review: ‘Anastasia’
The performances, however, won’t be the only thing you’ll be talking about after the show. The physical set, which is basically just an arch, is benefited by multiple on-stage projections
Theatre Review: ‘Fiddler on the Roof’
Fiddler on the Roof, one of the greatest musical ever written, has come to town and it’s definitely worth checking out.
