Meet Me In St. Louis at Scottfield Theatre Company

Reviews October 12, 2025 Amanda N. Gunther

With my high-starched collar and my high-heel shoes— and a wig piled up on my head…

I went to lose two jolly hours at the theatre and I went and lost my heart instead!

Clang! Clang! Clang! Went the trolly! Ding! Ding! Ding! Went the bell! Zing! Zing! Zing! Went my heartstrings as in love with this little show I fell! Old-fashioned classical musicals don’t always do it for me, especially because they tend to err on the lengthier side of long.

Reviews August 22, 2025 Amanda N. Gunther

42nd Street at Scottfield Theatre Company

Reviews April 13, 2024 Amanda N. Gunther

Broadway dreams. We’ve all had ‘em. And Scottfield Theatre Company is havin’ ‘em right now. They’ve got all you need to cheer you up right on the ends of their ankles! Side by side— they’re glorified— that amazing tap corps that makes up the splashiest, flashiest dance routines of 42nd Street. Directed and Choreographed by Becky Titelman, with Musical Direction by LaShelle Bray, this iconic golden-era Broadway musical is a true dancer’s dream and every bit the spectacular dance show one expects.

Elf at Third Wall Productions

Reviews December 4, 2023 Leonard Taube

In 2003 actor/comedian Will Ferrell oozed his way into the hearts and minds of people worldwide as Buddy the Elf in the Christmas smash motion picture Elf. So popular was the film that, worldwide, it grossed $223.9 million…quite a feat for a film with a production budget of $33 million! A few years later it was turned into a musical with a score by Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin, and book by Bob Martin and Thomas Meehan.

Big at Scottfield Theatre Company

Reviews November 4, 2023 Amanda N. Gunther

Fun! It isn’t planned! It isn’t programmed! Though you may have to do some planning and programming to make sure you get this big ol’ dose of fun into your calendar sometime over the next couple weekends. See what I did there? ‘big ol’ musical?’ I’m talking about Big, of course, now appearing— making its area premiere— at Scottfield Theatre Company to close out their 2023 calendar. Based 20th Century Fox Film (of the same name,

Rent at State Theater of Havre de Grace

Reviews September 2, 2022 Amanda N. Gunther

Forget regret. Or life is yours to miss— no day but today… and tomorrow, Sunday, and next weekend. Those are the chances you have to see Rent at The State Theater of Havre de Grace. Directed by Patrick Yarrington & Lauren Vitalo, with Musical Direction by Anthony Vitalo, and Choreography by Karlie Burnham, this production of Rent is textbook true in its presentation to Jonathan Larson’s original vision. Strong cast, strong moments that percolate in the background,

Newsies at Street Lamp Productions

Reviews December 5, 2018 Mike Zellhofer

Now is the time seize the day! Or in this case, “Carpe scaena!” And seize the stage like they did! Street Lamp Productions presentation of Disney’s Newsies, Directed and Choreographed by Bambi Johnson, is well worth the drive to Rising Sun, MD. I reckon it may be a bit out of the way for some Baltimore City folk, (Admittedly, had my mother not lived in Colora for over eleven years, I may not have known about it either.) but I promise you it’s worth the trip.
