To be honest, I wasn't particularly looking forward to seeing "Shrek the Musical." I saw the original "Shrek," the animated film and basis for the musical, when it came out in 2001, and liked it fine. But subsequent viewings with nieces and nephews left me with the feeling that

Geva continues the love and marriage theme of its 2011-2012 season with "Perfect Wedding," a light, frothy farce that's a welcome respite from the gloomy weather outside. Farce is a very specific genre, and it's not everybody's cup of tea. Geva last attempted a full-on farce with the period

You would hope that by the year 2012, the American public would be fairly well educated about the Holocaust. In addition to the historical records and stories from survivors, there have been countless works of art that have illuminated that dark chapter in human history. And yet, according to

Toward the beginning of "Tom Foolery" - a musical revue based around the songs of satirist Tom Lehrer - a cast member explains that if the evening inspires even one audience member to insult a good friend or slap a loved one, it will all have been worth it.

"Billy Elliot the Musical" is another example of a big-screen film finding new life on the stage. Disney has scored with musical-theater adaptations of "Beauty and the Beast," "The Lion King," and other family-friendly fare. (DreamWorks' "Shrek" has also made the leap to the stage, and Rochester Broadway Theatre

Fairy tales are currently a hot pop-culture commodity. Between new TV shows like "Once Upon a Time" and "Grimm," and not one but two adult-oriented Snow White films coming out next year, there's apparently some kind of subconscious interest in mining these classic stories for new, modern meanings. Perhaps

My 5-year-old niece is beyond excited that her favorite band, Big Time Rush, is headlining this year's Jingle Jam. For the uninitiated, BTR is basically the 21st century answer to The Monkees. It's a made-for-TV group featuring four pretty boys who get into adventures and sing in pretty much

It has been a big year for Rochester Community Players' Shakespeare Players shingle. Large crowds turned out this summer for the annual Shakespeare in the Park production in Highland Bowl (this year it was a very solid production of "Othello"). The Players launched the Rochester Shakespeare Literary Society, a

GROUP ROUND! As I cued up the episode I actually said to my TV, "Please bring the drama. This season has been so boring so far." We did get some drama, although nothing like the hysterics of years past. But more importantly, we got very little singing... The episode

First, apologies for taking last week off from blogging the show. It was a case of trying to do too much in too short a time, and I ended up totally frying myself. I initially intended to recap the final two audition episodes over the weekend, but then

For the first time in the show's history the auditions took place in Pittsburgh. There were some genuinely interesting candidates in the bunch, and not a ton of mockery toward the unfortunate, so for me that made for a decent episode. Special commendations to Steven Tyler's cheapo sound-effects

Remember when we all thought "The X Factor" would put "Idol" out of business? Yeah, not so much. Simon Cowell's much-ballyhooed singing competition certainly grabbed solid ratings in its debut season last fall, but I think we can all agree that it was a long way from the cultural

Last night's episode was easily the best so far of the season. Previously I had been disappointed by the fact that many of the, shall we say, manners- or sanity-challenged members of the cast had been holding back on the drama in an obvious attempt to rehabilitate the less-than-flattering
