The Lion King
The visual storytelling is the star for me. Some comic scenes run long, but the inventiveness of the staging never stops being a pleasure.

The Magic Flute
The spoken sections sometimes interrupted the momentum, but the musical passages were worth the wait. Papageno brought a welcome lightness. I would be curious to see a different production.
Into the Woods
The lyrics reward close listening. Not every scene had the same energy, but the ensemble handled the shifting tone with care. I would be curious to see a different production.
The Phantom of the Opera
A wonderfully atmospheric score, even when the story stretches credibility. The contrast between the intimate duets and opera scenes is the real draw.
The Sound of Music
Warm without becoming too sugary. I had forgotten how much tension sits underneath the story once the second act begins.
Les Misérables
A big emotional evening, though the pace occasionally left the characters little room to settle. The final ensemble made a strong impression. I would be curious to see a different production.
Waiting for Godot
I drifted in and out a little, but the physical comedy kept pulling me back. Some of the pauses said more than the conversations.
The Glass Menagerie
The fragile quality of the memories came through without making the characters feel distant. A small, deeply affecting evening. I would be curious to see a different production.
