Everything I Know I Learned From Musicals

Reviews - Side Show, Elephant Man, Plus the Best and Worst Musicals of 2014

Regular readers with note that most of my posts lately have been lists of links to my About.com posts. When I took on the About.com gig, I thought that I would be migrating some of my more evergreen posts to theater.about.com, which is the page that I now produce for About.com. My goal was to keep posting my reviews to this blog. 

Well, then the semester kicked in at the Boston Conservatory, as well as the obligation to generate two posts per week for About.com. So it turned out I needed every available story idea to meet my quota. My hope is that, as I settle into a groove, that I'll be able to find a bit more balance between the blog and About.com. 

That said, here are my most recent posts for About.com, including my reviews of Side Show and The Elephant Man, as well as my lists of the best and worst musicals of 2014:

The Worst Musicals of 2014

In any case, thanks for reading, and let me know if there's anything that you'd liek to see me cover, either here on the blog, or for About.com.  

Reviews - On the Town, Curious Incident, The Band Wagon and More

So, the combination of yet another busy semester at The Boston Conservatory and my contract with About.com to supply them with two posts a week has meant that I haven't had any time to post here on EIKILFM. (The Conservatory and About.com both pay me for my services. This blog, alas, does not.) 

But I have been keeping up with reviews of the major musicals, and many of the plays, that have opened in New York City this fall. It's just that I've been posting them on About.com. Here are the links to those reviews: 

Review - On the Town Revival on Broadway 

Reviews - Show Boat, Allegro, and The Band Wagon

Review Roundup - Curious Incident, It's Only a Play, and You Can't Take It WIth You

Review Roundup - Found, The Fortress of Solitude, and Bedbugs

As you can see, It's been a busy fall for theatergoing. And it's not over yet: still to come are my reviews of the revivals of The Elephant Man and Side Show. 

Happy holidays, y'all.
