BWW Review: YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU at Theatre Memphis
by Kevin Shaw - Apr 28, 2022
After 100 years of producing musicals, comedies and dramas, Theatre Memphis has (like any other theatre lucky enough to be around this long) produced its fair share of 'clunkers' and 'classics.'

Most community theatres across America pull out well-known titles as they rely more on the title of the show to fill the seats rather than on the actual people pulling the show together.

BWW Review: MY LORD, WHAT A NIGHT at Ford's Theatre
by Pamela Roberts - Oct 9, 2021
MY LORD, WHAT A NIGHT at Ford's Theatre is a fascinating story of a surprising friendship developing at a critical time in history. We don’t see the characters as mythological beings in this production, thanks to the expert cast we are drawn to the approachable – very human – personal stakes, strong bonds and real concerns that compel action.
