Sondheim's Influence On Broadway Grows Up Musical Theatre
Contributing writer notes Stephen Sondheim as a driving force who pushed Broadway away from innocence toward maturity. A score reveals that mornings may be harsh and paths lonely, yet his work remains not cynical but a reflection of an anxious era shaping artistic rules and expectations.

Rumors Madcap romp at Talent Co stage in town
Suzanne M Connelly reviews The Talent Co production of Rumors by Neil Simon. In a multilevel living room set eight friends converge to conceal Myras disappearance and Charlo’s botched death attempt as fast paced dialogue and eccentric characters push farce to the limit. The ensemble, led by Robert McMaster and Kathryn Guyette, delivers brisk, comic chaos through Act II amid colorful supporting turns and a quirky lineup of police officers. Attendance nears seventy with tickets ranging 12.50 to 19.50.
