Classic musicals
Three strong revivals (and one not-so-hot one -- guess which) are up for the Tony Award as best musical revival. My predictions for the winners of this and every other category will be in the Miami Herald's print and online editions on Tony Sunday, June 15. Meanwhile -- which musical revival do you think will take home the Tony?

Broadway Stars Prepare For Sunday's Tony Awards

Back Stage West

Review: Fahrenheit 451
The latest stage incarnation of Bradbury's sci-fi literati treat is a kindhearted return to stylish material that's most definitely still got something to say.

Review: Dog Sees God
Director Nick DeGruccio and a spirited cast capture the humor and heart in Royal's irresistible existential comedy.

Review: Finally
Stephen Belber's script, consisting of four related monologues, is lightly sprinkled with metaphor but is emotionally and intellectually laden with the guilt of modern tragedy.

Review: In On It
The play is funny and fun to watch, but it may be a bit too clever for its own good. It throws us so many curve balls that it's hard to sort out all the details.

Review: Teen Girl
Tanner at his best tinges honest stories with a sense of the nutty. In this case it makes for an entertaining combination.

Review: Someday
This is clearly an excellent vehicle for Cornerstone, whose community collaborations on the subjects of spirituality, ethics, the environment, and other verities are legion.
