REVIEW: CSB’s “This is Who We Are”
“The show is about loss, hope, and new beginnings and writer-director Nuel Rivera has churned out a story which is sincere at it’s core.”
REVIEW: “Haring Lear” – a roaring lion of a production
“Director Nonon Padilla is the perfect kind of genius to helm this groundbreaking production – with his Spartan-like attention to movement and tonality, Haring Lear might very well be his most accomplished, extensive canvass to date.”
REVIEW: The Sandbox Collective’s “The Pillowman”
“McDonagh’s play is whip-smart, with complex layers that explore the reliability of a story and a storyteller.”
REVIEW: Green Glass Door’s “Dance Until You Shatter Yourself”
“For over an hour, Daniel Darwin spun—and it was breathtaking.”
REVIEW: Ballet Manila’s BM 2.0
“It was like being in a rock concert, but instead of guitars and drums, it was more than 30 dancers shaking the ground with nothing but perfect ballet.”
REVIEW: 9 Works Theatrical’s “La Cage Aux Folles”
“La Cage Aux Folles is a force to be reckoned with, and it echoes in the audience’s cheers and standing ovations.”
REVIEW: “Arbol De Fuego” – engaging and entertaining
“Arbol de Fuego is a theatrical tour de force. Treading down the line of drama and comedy, the show is amusing and entertaining, yet deeply affecting.”
REVIEW: “Friction” – a romantic thriller set to music
“The true star of the show, however, is the music. Reminiscent of Off-Broadway rock musicals, it’s not difficult to walk out of the theater with one or two songs stuck in your head.”
