**** Highly Recommended  As I watched Porchlight Music Theatre’s new production, "The Irish … and How They Got That Way," I felt like I was watching my family history. The narrative storytelling by the ensemble cast of four, interspersed with Irish music, was witty, interesting, historical, and sometimes downright sarcastic (especially when describing the English and how they got that way - food). "The Irish …" is charming and I give it 4 Spotlights

The latest Disney on Ice production is drawing audiences in Chicago with its fantastic skating, multi-storylines and bright sets.

**** Highly Recommended  Drury Lane’s production of On Your Feet! The Story of Emelio and Gloria Estefan is just spectacular! It’s a toe-tapping, dance-in-your seat musical based on the life stories of international superstars Gloria and Emilio Estefan. Unlike the usual jukebox musical, On Your Feet is intelligent, emotional and very well-acted.  I give it 4 BIG Spotlights.
