Theater

You might have noticed it's been a while..

Due to COVID-19, the theater community has been placed on hold. For the safety of the performers, theater employees, and audience members, shows are currently not in production - which means I don't have any shows to review. Please enjoy my reviews of shows that have passed, and visit the links below to learn how you can support the theater community.

The Majestic Virtual Theater

During this unprecedented time, us theater folk gotta do whatever we can to keep entertainment alive. The show must go on! Right? Well, thanks to The Majestic Theater in Corvallis, Oregon, we've been able to participate in and watch live theater over zoom. With new performances weekly and open auditions for everyone around the world, it's a bright spot during this pandemic.
