HAMLET Compass Performing Arts Center/Brazen-Faced Varlets
It’s no secret how “Hamlet” winds up, only how many bodies will be on stage when the curtain drops.

THE POLISH CLEANING LADY'S DAUGHTER African American Cultural Center/Paul Robeson Theatre
Buffalo is known for great architecture and the mansions along Delaware Avenue from the days when the Queen City was one of the richest in the world.
I’ve long been suspicious of that image since wages paid to the workers in the steel mills and the grain mills and on the railroads might have been kind of low.

NEIGHBORHOOD 3: Requisition of Doom Kavinoky Theatre
Think of this play as an electronic edition of an old theatrical trope of conflict between parents and children, here in some suburban community of cul-de-sacs and possible zombies.

FAUCI AND KRAMER Canterbury Woods Performing Arts Center/First Look Buffalo Theatre Company
It was a friendship out of some unrealistic Hollywood movie: playwright and AIDS activist Larry Kramer and scientist and highest paid federal employee Dr. Anthony Fauci.

GRUMPY OLD MEN: The Musical 4410 Bailey Ave, Amherst/O'Connell & Company
Probably the O’Connell & Company plan for “Grumpy Old Men: The Musical” was to have this movie spinoff open in the middle of one of those awful local winter Februarys.

THE BOWLING PLAY Shea's Smith Theatre/Second Generation Theatre
Just after seeing Kelly Copps’ “The Bowling Play,” I went by a once-prominent and crowded bowling alley, now covered with signs for potential future development.
Not as a bowling alley.

BETRAYAL Andrews Theatre/Irish Classical Theatre Company
How did we get here?
That’s a familiar line from TV or movies or the stage, usually toward the end of a tale of woe and tragedy.

THE LIGHT FANTASTIC Road Less Traveled Productions
For those who seek redemption, they don’t always recognize the Devil is in the vicinity or there would be no need to be redeemed.

Collaboration once again the key in responding to emergency events
Our region recently dealt with another major winter weather event as Mother Nature hit Erie County hard last month with some downright brutal conditions. I am proud of the collaboration that took place throughout the county in addressing the lake effect snow storm in mid-January. We were able to coordinate a strategic response that eventually grew to include thousands of workers and hundreds of pieces of equipment of all types that assisted hard-hit communities.

BEAUTIFUL: The Carole King Musical Medaille College/MusicalFare Theatre
As soon as you finish reading this review, get your tickets to MusicalFare’s “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.”
It’s that good.

THE FOLKS AT HOME Alleyway Theatre
“The Folks at Home” is an “Everyman” show with every character (almost) challenged financially and residentially.

FUNNY GIRL Shea's Buffalo
A century ago, Fanny Brice was an entertainment force, as a star of Broadway’s Ziegfeld Follies.

KINDERTRANSPORT Maxine & Robert Seller Theatre/Jewish Repertory Theatre
Across the world, there are thousands of people who are alive because thousands of Jewish parents in the waning days before World War II allowed their children to flee Nazi Germany.

REEFER MADNESS THE MUSICAL Shea's Smith Theatre/O'Connell & Company
There’s nothing more painful to an authoritarian than humor, since laughter can ease the pain of force.

Reviews
BURN/THIS Lorna C. Hill Theatre/Bellissima Productions
Early on in Bellissima Productions’ “Burn/This,” I was reminded of that 1983 classic movie “The Big Chill.”
They have one key central plot point, the essential character around which the story revolves, here Robbie, is dead and gone.
