Giving Head Voice: DF Reviews Anna Bolena at AVA (for Parterre Box)

A cast of 1st and 2nd Year AVA artists showed considerable promise, and sometimes more than that.

Part Cabaret, part Jersey Boys, Harmony cannot decide on its primary focus.

No show should last for 20 years.

A fascinatingly varied program captured both intellectual rigor and palpable joy in music-making.

It sounds like a bad joke, but Beth Wohl’s riveting Camp Siegfried–superbly done by Theatre Exile–is rooted in reality.

In this vulgar world, there is no situation that can’t be limned with a power ballad.

Another year, another strong group of AVA artists give us careers to look forward to.

How did this slimly plotted show make it to Broadway? Four words: Josh Gad! Andrew Rannells!

A beautiful, funny, disquieting study by an artist whose mastery of understatement is nonpareil.

If only good intentions were good theater!
