Last night, I found myself comfortably seated in a luxurious velvet Broadway seat, where I had the unique opportunity to witness not just a performance, but a reflection of my own life. The vibrant production brought to life the essence of myself, my cherished mother, and every remarkable woman I’ve ever loved, all beautifully expressed through song, dynamic movement, and the authenticity of stretch marks that tell their own stories. Each note resonated, evoking a deep sense of connection and nostalgia.

hey guys & dolls — ally here!

So here’s the deal: I walked into Dead Outlaw expecting something quirky and delightfully offbeat — I mean, it’s a musical centered around a dead cowboy, how serious could it possibly be? Yet, to my surprise and bemusement, by the end of the show, I found myself feeling unexpectedly low-key emotional and completely obsessed with the entire experience.

Okay, so let me start by saying: Floyd Collins was not at all what I expected. And honestly? I think that’s the point.

I saw it on a cold spring night — the kind of night where New York City feels exceptionally cinematic and moody — and I went in knowing very little besides the fact that “Jeremy Jordan is in it” (which, let’s be real, was undoubtedly more than enough to entice me to make the trip). But what I experienced was something far more haunting, intimate, and emotionally layered than I could have ever imagined.

I had the amazing opportunity to experience the incredible Buena Vista Social Club: The Musical, and I'm still reeling from the vibrant energy, deep passion, and rich soul of this truly unforgettable production. This spectacular musical celebration of Cuban music and culture had me dancing enthusiastically in my seat, singing along joyfully, and grinning from ear to ear with sheer delight.

I experienced the most unforgettable night at BOOP! The Musical. This energetic and empowering show celebrates female friendship, self-love, and the iconic Betty Boop. The talented cast, stunning costumes, and catchy soundtrack had me dancing in my seat and beaming with joy. Jasmine Amy Rogers is a star. What sunshine she brings to this production. I’m so happy she went to Broadway with it after the stint in Chicago.

How I managed to go this long without finally seeing this truly gorgeous and imaginative show, I’ll likely never comprehend, but I recently received a chance to witness it for myself, all thanks to Armand and the most beautiful and thoughtful birthday gift imaginable. That’s truly the best way I could describe this incredible theater experience: beautiful.

A Triumphant Return to Broadway.

The 2024 revival of “Gypsy” starring the incomparable Audra McDonald is a masterclass in acting, singing, and emotional depth. McDonald’s portrayal of Mama Rose, the fiercely ambitious and complex mother of Gypsy Rose Lee, is nothing short of breathtaking.

I recently had the genuine privilege of attending a captivating performance of “Yellow Face,” a thought-provoking play that delves deeply into the complex and sensitive topic of Asian American identity and representation within the often challenging landscape of the entertainment industry. Starring the exceptionally talented Daniel Dae Kim, this production was enlightening and refreshingly timely.

Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone are two iconic names that, when mentioned together, will certainly entice anyone with a discerning taste for the theatre. Once you arrived at the performance venue, you were warmly welcomed and treated to a wonderful play that captivated the audience. Farrow shines brilliantly with a soft-spoken shyness that belies a deep sense of darkness and desperation as she portrays the unsuspecting character of Sharon, a woman who, after experiencing a painful divorce, takes in a mysterious roommate named Robyn.

I loved the movie Death Becomes Her, and I was initially unsure how its unique story would translate effectively as a musical. However, I’m thrilled to say it’s nothing short of fantastic. The production showcases the truly amazing performances by the incredibly talented Megan Hilty, Jennifer Simard, Michelle Williams, and Christopher Sieber, all of whom bring their respective characters to vibrant life, along with stunning, eye-catching costumes that create a dazzling world on stage. The time flew by—I had so much fun throughout the entire performance.

I had an absolute blast watching the wildly entertaining show, TEETH at New World Stages. At first, I was somewhat puzzled by the ponchos provided for the front-row attendees, but I quickly realized it was all part of the playful fun, as it turned out to be a splash zone!

The kids are gonna be alright. That’s literally what I said as I put on my coat and walked out after this fantastic show finished. I am 37 years old, and watching the incredible artists of tomorrow up on that stage made me feel something profound.

There are so many things to say about this exceptional show. I was so lucky to get the chance to see it during previews. As I sat and watched the story progress, I found myself thinking about my relationship with not only technology but also other people and how it intertwines more than I think.

It was a visual feast for the eyes at the same time. Everything is uniform, and everything is monochrome in a sense. I loved it. It felt as if I were watching a film come to life before my eyes. It was beautifully done. It was so stripped down that you are forced to focus on the details in the performances—how it should be, I say.

McNeal takes the Oscar winner to some borrowing places and into ideas we are all figuring out in real time. A.I. is a touchy subject for most. The moralities behind it are called into question every day. It was very intriguing to see how the usage of A.I. was woven into this bleak story. McNeal is a man on borrowed time.

It is a simple concept that dives into grief, hope, faith & pain. What happens when six people go to grief counseling and their grief counselor doesn't show up? It seems so simple. Take a vote. They end up starting without their counselor but then with no one to facilitate properly, the class gets deeper than expected. It’s funny & thought-provoking.
