“Hadestown: Teen Edition” was a sprawling journey through the underworld, with earth-shattering ballads and swinging lanterns alike. Essentially, an utterly transformative production headlined by a wildly talented cast of teenagers.

With soaring vocals and dynamic choreography, Signature Theatre’s vibrant production of In the Heights achieved a story of dreams, family, community, and how they intersect. 

Stars Performing Arts’s production of “Twelfth Night” was brilliantly playful; the talented teenagers delivered hope, heart, and heaps of comedic panache.

JOB was incredibly chilling. This 80-minute thriller dove into the horrors of the internet and the consuming nature of work, all with a rising tension so palpable you could cut it with a knife.

This production was nothing short of haunting. With an intricate set, powerful performances, and spellbinding choreography, Workhouse Performing Arts’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame brought a dark twist to the classic Disney film.
