by Jonathan Netek - December 04, 2024

Sister is back again at Stages Houston, instructing one last catechism class before the church Christmas party commences.

Review: VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE at 4th Wall Theatre Company


by Brett Cullum - November 29, 2024

I feel like this company, at this point in time, is simply happy to be here doing this show, and I can say the feeling is infectious. It’s not your typical holiday offering, but you can never be wrong with the wit of Christopher Durang and the magic of invoking the spirit of Maggie Smith. I’m thankf...

Review: WINTER SOLSTICE at Rec Room Arts


by Brett Cullum - November 25, 2024

The author wrote this dark piece about a liberal couple whose mother invites a conservative stranger into their house on Christmas Eve to show how easily fascism marches in politely and with charm.

Review: LOVE BOMB at CATASTROPHIC THEATRE


by Brett Cullum - November 17, 2024

LOVE BOMB is a masterpiece of the absurd, but at the same time, it’s a viable Melanie jukebox musical that could command any stage in town. Yet I doubt that any company other than the Catastrophic Theatre will ever dare to do so because it asks much of its audience....

Review: PLAYHOUSE CREATURES at Lionwoman Productions


by Brett Cullum - November 12, 2024

Review: THE DICHOTOMY OF HATTIE MCDANIEL at VINCENT VICTORIA PRESENTS


by Brett Cullum - November 01, 2024

The film first existed as a play, and Vincent Victoria wisely kept his lead actress from that production, Wykesha King, playing Hattie McDaniel. Wykesha creates a three-dimensional character who can act and sing; we believe she is a glamorous actress in the golden age of Hollywood. And we feel the s...
