It’s… a… musical! A Mus-i-cal! Theatreworks Live is doing an amazing musical! With song and dance and sweet romance and happy endings by happenstance!

Hadestown (Teen Edition) at Theatreworks Live

Reviews July 18, 2025 Amanda N. Gunther

Hadestown (Teen Edition) is a remarkable show, and it has a gift to give; it could make you see how the world could be, instead of the way that it is. And Theaterworks Live is a sold-out experience, for their production of Hadestown (Teen Edition); the closest you’ll get it reading this here write-up to the strikingly talented teens who are tackling the stage over the course of four performances, singing their hearts and souls out in this evocative,

Reviews June 3, 2025 Amanda N. Gunther

Are you ready to hit the ceiling and then tear up the town? Do you gotta— cut loose? FOOTLOOSE? Well, Theatreworks Live certainly does! And these talented young teens are taking hold of your soul!

Mesmerizing. Haunting. Lingering. Distill the theatrical experience into a singularity of words and those are the three that flash immediately to mind.

Adapted for the stage by Steven Cuden and Frank Wildhorn, this musical thriller appears on the Opera House stage just in the throng of the calendar’s most haunted month.

“Spit it out, dear. Go on. On the floor. There’s worse things than that down there.” – Mrs. Lovett

And she’s right. In a world where borders are overlooked, people are minimalized, and one pill or another is all you need what ails you, the floor of humanity is riddled with disgust. The Havre de Grace Opera house has found a way to give us a three-hour respite from what lies outside their doors.

Footloose at Phoenix Festival Theatre

Reviews March 4, 2022 Mark Briner

In the summer of 1984, a little movie with a big soundtrack took the world by storm and launched a young up-and-coming leading man for whom at the time you’d be pressed to find movie connections of two degrees into the stratosphere as the ubiquitous megastar Kevin Bacon. Filling out the cast with veteran actors John Lithgow and Dianne Wiest along with breakout performances from young actors like Lori Singer, Christopher Penn, and Sarah Jessica Parker,
