		<description><![CDATA[What a sublime afternoon at the theatre. The revival of Stephen Sondheim/Hugh Wheeler musical A Little Night Music is about as perfect as a musical can get. This show, in its first revival since its 1973 premiere, has super star power casting with Catherine Zeta-Jones showing that her singing and dancing isn&#8217;t only for the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been back and forth over the past couple months between anticipating Nine and being scared of it. Now that I&#8217;ve seen it, I understand why I felt that way. The movie is simply okay with its big production numbers being the best thing going for it. The story is there, but its execution is [...]]]></description>

Catherine Zeta-Jones is making her Broadway debut and Angela Landsbury is back on stage after last season&#8217;s Tony winning turn in Blithe Spirit. We&#8217;ll see [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 80s had some pretty crazy stuff going on. Andrew Lloyd Webber&#8217;s Starlight Express was one of the more bonkers attempts at a musical&#8230; and one that I love. The concept is pretty simple: it&#8217;s all a child&#8217;s dream about his toy train set coming to life and the ensuing race to see which train [...]]]></description>

The 1980 Fame, a six-time Oscar nominee and two-time winner,  is a deep, gritty, raw and exuberant look at a collection of students at New York&#8217;s performing arts high school.

Forty-eight years later it&#8217;s back, having just started previews this past Thursday ahead of an October 15 opening. The cast attracted us to this revival as much as the show itself [...]]]></description>
