TDF Stages On Stage

By MARK BLANKENSHIP

There are some fascinating things happening in L.A. theatre—shows that make you wish you had a dozen free nights and unlimited airline miles.

For those who can’t wing it to California and see these productions in person, there’s always LA STAGE Times, the magazine of the L.A. Stage Alliance, where features, reviews, and news items offer a vivid look at the city’s live performances. Beginning this week, LA STAGE Times and TDF Stages will periodically share content, allowing our readers deeper access to what’s happening on both coasts.

TO KICK THINGS OFF, WE ARE PLEASED TO RECOMMEND THESE STORIES:



COLUMNIST DON SHIRLEY’S thoughtful analysis of three current musicalsDangerous Beauty, Gigi and Rock of Ages—and how they portray their female characters.
