REVIEW: "Make Believe" at New Jersey Repertory

by Gary Wien
published 2025-02-21

(LONG BRANCH, NJ) -- World premiere plays can be tricky. Sometimes a few tweaks here and there can completely change a play for the better or for the worse, and I tend to give premieres a bit of leeway. You're not just reviewing the play itself, but the play's potential as well.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...2/20/25

by Danny Coleman
published 2025-02-20

"We're really excited," began Allie Colleen, "We spoke to some people last week who have seen a couple of shows at the winery who said they were really good shows and they were acoustic shows. So, I'm really interested to soundcheck the band because soundcheck is my favorite thing; it sounds so whimsical and maybe a little silly but it's like the first time you get to meet somebody. It's the first time you get to sing in a room and nobody is in there and your show is gonna be so different later hopefully; hopefully people show up and there are a lot of people in the room and it's gonna be a little different. There is something really cool about that for me. I had a little tiny stage in this sports barn that we had on my family's property and that's where I spent all of my time, alone on this little stage that was about an inch off of the ground but it was a stage, it wasn't floor level and I thought that was the coolest thing and I think something like that has made me fall in love with big empty rooms to sing in."
