Reviews of recent plays and musicals
The Revolutionists
Gamut Theatre
October 4-19, 2025
“Gamut’s presentation of Lauren Gunderson’s 2018 play…is timely and taut. Director Kelli Kauterman keeps a fast pace, fearlessly embracing the entwined humor and pathos of four women in untenable situations.”
M. Diane McCormick, The Burg: October 5, 2025
“The Revolutionists at Gamut Theatre is easily one of the top five plays this reviewer has seen this year.”
Andrea Stephenson, Broadway World: October 3, 2025
Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors
Open Stage
October 5-November 1, 2025
“Mixing campy comedy, gothic horror, slapstick farce, and sexual overtones, director Stuart Landon brings us a silly twist on Bram Stoker’s already twisted tale, reminiscent of Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein and The Rocky Horror Show.”
Gina Napoli, The Burg, October 5, 2025
“The versatility of these actors is astonishing, as they move from character to character sometimes from one line to the next. Along with their costumes, they alter their voices, gestures, and expressions with each character change, making each character completely distinct.”
Andrea Stephenson, Broadway World, October 5, 2025
Moriarty: A New Sherlock Holmes Adventure
Little Theatre of Mechanicsburg
October 10-26, 2025
“The quick set and costume changes are key to keeping this action-packed play rolling, and the team at Little Theatre of Mechanicsburg has clearly put thought into that necessity in their brilliant costume design, set design, and lighting design.”
Andrea Stephenson, Broadway World, October 13, 2025
Shear Madness
Keystone Theatrics/The Playhouse at Allenberry
October 10-26, 2025
“Director Ryan Boyles, with stage manager Rowan Young and assistant stage manager Mark Myers, put together a fast-paced, well-staged, and thoroughly engaging production with a brilliant cast.”
