Beowulf

david lucarelli · June 15, 2022 certified reviewer
This is not the dull translation you were forced to read in high school. This is you, young warrior, sitting at the king's hearth, tipsy with mead in the great hall as you sit enraptured by one of the magical bards as he calls to life a tale of one of the great heroes of yore, and outside the night closes in, and the monster approaches!... full review

Shubop-Dubay-Had: The No Matter Watt PreQuel

david lucarelli · June 10, 2022 certified reviewer
That Gordon Matheson is a wily cat. No sooner has he begun what at first feels like an off the cuff extemporaneous introduction to the show, then you realize that before you know it, there's music playing underneath him, and the show itself has already begun! An inspiring semi-autobiographical stream of consciousness look at the power and strength of the human spirit to rise above deep personal loss, disease, relapse, and mental illness and be of service to both ourselves and others.... full review

Too Big For Her Britches

david lucarelli · June 08, 2022 certified reviewer
A very brave, honest and inspiring show. Our parents that are supposed to be our guiding lights do not always come properly equipped with the life tools we need to help us solve our problems, and when their toxic behavior is in fact at the root of many of our problems, it can be quite a journey to overcome them. This show takes us on that journey, and shows us the light at the end of the tunnel!... full review
