Re: “Nutcracked Pueblo”
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
I used to dance there and so did my daughter. It was short-lived. Don't waste your time or money... she is loony!!
Re: “Nutcracked Pueblo”
Nothing says professional quite like this Facebook post written by adult dance director Donna Doell using baby talk while pretending to be her recently deceased cat to sell tickets for this years Nutcracker being performed by a time to dance. Enjoy!

Re: “A Musical Mess”
I think the director of the show should stop commenting on these reviews. It is obvious and embarrassing.

It's a school for god sake. NOT ATC. Learn the difference.
The audiences are loving the show, silly. I heard they added another show and ticket sales increased. Hmm, maybe it's because people are ENJOYING IT! Word of mouth is a powerful thing! I hope it drives you out of trying to review shows in the future! Because you don't know how!
Re: “A Musical Mess”
You're ridiculous! The show is beautiful and it always makes me cry. Hopefully, patrons will ignore you.
Re: “A Musical Mess”
The sound needs work, yes. The set needs more money, Yes. This production is fantastic, YES!
My wife and I loved the production and the performers! Why don't you just stop writing.
Re: “A Musical Mess”
I don't know what production you went to, Sherilyn. But, maybe you and Kathy Allen need to take a house by the sea together.
This was a WONDERFUL production with WONDERFUL performances by these college-aged actors. I preferred the "children" being these 2 actors as opposed to real children. The depth of character in both portrayals was excellent - something a child hardly ever has going for them. I do agree about the orchestra being too loud but that is the problem for the sound designer.
I saw last year's Into the Woods as well - both productions were directed by a person who knows musicals and what makes audiences come back to ART time and time again. This production was top-notch!
Try to be LESS cynical!
Re: “O'odham Colors”
I've seen Olen Perkins' work, and specifically, the pieces Miss Portwood chose to write about. I suspect that the pieces were designed to provoke a reaction and, obviously, they did. I think it's really a shame that Miss Portwood spent the better part of her article slamming Perkins. I wish I could type more but, I smell the sweet perfume of a critic's burning flesh and I must go eat.
Re: “A Peek Into 9/11”
Though referencing the playwright who famously claimed, "Hell is other people," is certainly No Error.
Re: “A Peek Into 9/11”
Good, and I didn't say "easily." I said "tends to."
Re: “A Peek Into 9/11”
Sorry about the mistake, oscar (although it's a stretch to say that such an error means the rest is easily discountable). It's been fixed.
Re: “A Peek Into 9/11”
Jean-Paul Sartre wrote No Exit. This blatant error alone tends to make one discount the rest.
Re: “Prized Place”
What a thoughtful, fabulous article! Would it be possible to put a note at the ad break saying that the article is continued after the ad? I didn't realize the article was longer until I saw it in the print edition.
Re: “Despair and Its Antidotes”
I went to this Exhibition yesterday, and I would have to say, it was AMAZING!
Re: “Prized Place”
The expressive power of the visual arts combined with scientific knowledge is a strong tool to awaken awareness about pollution and the depletion of natural resources. The artwork isn't only aesthetic and fine but carries its somber message to the viewer with beauty and significance.
Re: “Heat Strokes”
I love the pictures I have seen, too bad I can't fly to Tuscon
Re: “Heat Strokes”
It is really a great show - don't miss it before it closes September 18th.

MUSIC - Opera, What operas are going to be done by the University of Arizona Opera Theater? Thanks.
Re: “Good Drama”
Quite frankly, theater at THMS saved my life. I didn't fit in, school was boring, and I was depressed. Then I found drama with Mel Baker, Esther Rosen, and John Hemetter, and I survived because the arts made my life magical. Art was kind enough to give me a tour of the remodeled little theater a few years ago, and it was great to see that he had a vibrant program. The majority who went through when I did are no longer acting, but those who are are doing reasonably well, and we are all still as close as our complicated lives let us. I did continue in the arts, working in music for 18 years, but now I am finishing a doctorate in geography. And art in school made that possible.
