The Bindings – Theatre Witch’s New Performance Art Piece Resonates
The room is dark. A half-dozen, underwear-clad women are stationed around the outer walls of the empty room, unmoving, their backs to me and everyone else entering. But this isn’t what catches my eye as I enter; it’s the writhing, dancing mass of fabric in the center of the room that demands my full attention. […]
Cowboy Elektra Workshop – A Greek Tragedy Goes Western
The scraping of the violin bow across the saw’s edge creates a mournful wail as the puppeteers float a hat, trousers, and bloodstained shirt into place. It is the ghost of Oren, Elektra’s brother, come to demand that she take up his knife and bring frontier justice to their murderess mother Nessie. The girl in […]

The neon green toxic waste bubbles and burps in the vat, nerdy Melvin lost beneath the surface. Melvin’s attackers peer over the rim of the vat, making sure he’s no longer a threat. Satisfied, they turn their attentions elsewhere until a monstrous roar stops them in their tracks. One deformed hand after another emerges from […]
IT The Musical Parody – Rockwell Table & Stage Gets IT Right
A paper boat floats down the petite gutter river; a little boy chasing from behind. The boat – the S.S. Georgie – picks up speed and sails down the sewer drain, far out of the little boy’s reach. Luckily for him, the sewer is not empty, but home to a friendly clown named Pennywise, who […]

Below is our review of Fallen Saints: Salem by Force of Nature Productions. While we try to refrain from spoiling the entirety of the show; there are some spoilers below–so please be aware if you are planning on attending. There is something very wrong with Betty, the poor girl standing next to me. She […]
