"Excited is an understatement as we announce this incredible line up of shows," said Kristin Dotson, CEO of Celebrity Attractions. "SIX is currently the hottest new show on Broadway and the fact that Little Rock has a stop so early on the national tour speaks to how well we support Broadway in this town. We do our best to bring you shows that are fresh and new and this season, 4 of our 5 shows have never been to Central Arkansas. Add to that the Andrew Lloyd Webber classic, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR and we are set for a full season of amazing entertainment."

Review: GIN GAME at Vapors Live

What did our critic think of GIN GAME at Vapors Live? As I made my way to the Vapors, 315 Park Avenue, in Hot Springs, to watch their production of GIN GAME Saturday, May 20, I had no idea that I was going to instantly fall in love with this venue.

Review: MY FAIR LADY at Robinson Center

What did our critic think of MY FAIR LADY at Robinson Center? With a little bit of luck Broadway World was able to catch the amazing masterpiece of the Lincoln Center Theater Production of MY FAIR LADY at Robinson Center, 426 West Markham St., in Little Rock, Friday, May 19. Directed by Bartlett Sher with tour direction by Samantha Saltzman, this Lerner and Loewe classic whisked us away to London to follow a flower girl on her quest to raise her station in life. I do love a good girl-power tale, especially when it is infused with song after memorable song.
