    theatreworks has really raised the bar for theatre in the west valley. This is a great show. My only gripe is the the sound system in the theatre. There was a buzz through-out the show. But the show trumped any small issues that occured. Very professional actors. Collapse

    Wow! I went to Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre's new show All Shook Up and just loved it! I can't remember the last time a show made me laugh as much as this one did. It is so much FUN! Classic Elvis songs, mistaken identities, love triangles...what more could you ask for. April is excellent as Natalie and J. Michael is a wonderful Chad. Other outstanding performances by Chelsea(what a voice!)and Ben make this show a must see. I highly recommend it for a fun night out! Collapse

    (continued)...the only thing that bothered me was, when the show finally started, not even half the size of the house was filled. This, my friends, is a problem. Every single person in the valley's very large theater community needs to take a gander at this moving and touching show. If the message of this show is not delivered to as many people as possible whats the point of the message? Do not let yourself regret not seeing this show, cause in the end of october, if you haven't bought your ticket yet, you will, I promise you, definitely be beating yourself up. What makes this show different from any other production of Rent is it is done by kids Collapse

    This show is the most groundbreaking achievement for youth theater in Scottsdale since I can remember. The subject matter is very controversial and some presume that a show as intense as this should not and cannot be done by the youth of our valley. They were wrong. D. Scott Withers captured the heart, spirit and message of this "role of the dice" show with his perfect casting and brilliant staging. Alan Plado's music direction and rockin' band also deserve much of the credit that needs to be given to this show. Beth Reynold's choreography is just the icing on the cake to this German chocolate of an break through (haha). The brand new sound equipment and sound design, which make "easy listening" sound overworked, add a brand new level to the support and prosperity of the new Greasepaint. Michael Eddy, being the already known genius that he is, created a lighting design that reflected the attitude of this edgy production. Again every cast member is perfect but the only thing...

    Listened to it twice - shimmery and rippling. The line that sticks - "Common sense will fool you." John Seay's writing notwithstanding, my favorites are Dawson's songs - "I've Come for Only One Reason," because it's happy, "The Duck Song," because it's achingly honest, and "You Fell with the Rain," because of it's flavor. The rest of it I'd call pop roots music. Collapse
