The Importance of Being Earnest
Every pause seemed to set up another joke. The cast let the language do the work, and the smallest changes of expression got some of the biggest laughs. Worth sitting with for a while afterward.

Giselle
The second act had a stillness that made every small movement matter. The corps were beautifully together without losing that eerie, drifting quality. Glad I made time for this one.
Cabaret
Hadestown
The band feels like another character in the story. I knew where it was going and still found myself hoping for a different ending. The quiet moments stayed with me as much as the big numbers. Glad I made time for this one.
Les Misérables
The ensemble sound was the highlight. Even knowing the score so well, I found new details in the quieter scenes and overlapping lines. Glad I made time for this one.
The Lion King
The opening still feels astonishing. What I noticed this time was the care in the smaller puppet movements and the way the ensemble creates the landscape. Worth sitting with for a while afterward.
Sweeney Todd
The score does so much of the storytelling. The tension builds almost unnoticed, and then a comic moment makes it even more uncomfortable. Worth sitting with for a while afterward.
Into the Woods
The way the stories knot together is a joy to follow. Then the second act asks much harder questions than the first half prepares you for. Glad I made time for this one.
The Sound of Music
The Sleeping Beauty
The balance and musical phrasing were extraordinary. I liked having time to notice the different qualities of each variation. Worth sitting with for a while afterward.
