Two Theatre teachers in Texas have been placed on administrative leave as questions continue and details remain limited.

A video from Mamma Mia! shows how quickly a night at the theatre can go sideways. Singing too loud isn’t okay. Losing your mind over it isn’t either.

A Las Vegas theater teacher is facing multiple sexual assault charges, with former students describing years of troubling behavior.

A jazz musician canceled a show on principle. The Kennedy Center responded with a lawsuit threat. That contrast tells you everything you need to know.

The theatre community is mourning the loss of Imani Dia Smith, a former Lion King child performer remembered for her talent, generosity, and spirit. She was 25.

An actor was fired from a production of A Christmas Carol after missing a rehearsal due to an injury. The injury was reportedly sustained during the production itself.

Should The Wedding Singer get a Broadway revival after nearly 20 years? I kind of think yes.

Hot take that shouldn’t be a hot take: The Full Monty is vastly underrated, David Yazbek is one of Broadway’s smartest composers, and this show would hit hard in 2026.

Frank Wildhorn is nothing if not unapologetic. I’ve seen all of his Broadway shows, and I’m ranking them, the good, the flawed, and the one that gets it exactly right.

“December 24th, 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.” A lyric that’s become a ritual — and why Christmas Eve might be the perfect night for Jonathan Larson.

Some musicals never really leave you. This is me making the case for The Scarlet Pimpernel — big music, big feelings, and why Broadway could use a revival like this right now.

If you’re choosing a season for a community theatre or college program, give Baby a moment of your time. It’s tender, relatable, and more powerful than people remember.

Every few years, the same question comes back: should this show belong in high schools at all? A closer look at Rock of Ages: Youth Edition and what it says about how we decide what students are “ready” to perform.

Is it talent… or being the favorite? A sarcastic guide to high school theatre casting, and a real conversation about what students actually learn.

The excitement around “Wicked” is bigger than ever. Maybe this is the moment to start the conversation about school licensing and what it could unlock for the next generation of performers.

Showing up matters. For every kid, every parent, every school. But when concerts and performances happen during the workday, families can be left out.

If you have to pay just to audition for a college theatre program, that’s not opportunity—it’s exclusion disguised as tradition.

Let’s talk about crying on stage. Why it doesn’t always show up when you want it to, why forcing it rarely works, and what actually matters more than tears.

Ever wonder why you can get a callback, do well, and still not get cast? From the other side of the table, here’s what’s actually being considered—and why it’s rarely personal.

A community theatre announced a show, held auditions, and scheduled rehearsals—only to discover they never secured the rights. It’s an uncomfortable but important reminder: before dates, before casting, securing the rights has to come first.

Prop guns aren’t just props, they carry real responsibility. A reminder that safety, training, and clear protocols aren’t optional—they’re part of the craft.

One of my biggest audition pet peeves: the pointless callback. If there’s no direction, no curiosity, no intention behind bringing people back, it’s just wasting everyone’s time.

There’s a difference between “I can do this” and “I’m the only one who can.”

Lighting design is the quiet magic behind every great show. More people should give it a shot.

Directors, your costume designer isn’t just picking out clothes. They’re building your world, one seam at a time. Here are the key questions you should be ready to answer

“A clean, organized props table doesn’t just support the show, it sets the tone. It says: we respect this process. We respect each other. We’re ready.”
