Jazz
music called Jazz was born sometime around 1895 in New Orleans. It combined elements of Ragtime, marching band music and Blues.

The Umbrellas of Cherbourg Review
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, which is being performed by the Two Rivers Theatre Company, is a remake of a 1964 bittersweet French musical romance originally directed by Jacques Demy. The only way I can describe this play is as a sugary, jazz pop opera with an unexpected ending. There is no spoken dialogue in this play; the actor sings every word you hear. Surprisingly, the sung dialogue was not as intolerable as I first imagined

The Tempest, Critical Review
Prospero's Plottings After years of writing plays of history, tragedy, grand comedy and dramatic romance, William Shakespeare emerged from his darker writing of the past into the lighter, more peaceful style of his play “The Tempest.” This was Shakespeare’s last complete play, and, just as he bid farewell to the art he had so mastered, his principal character Prospero departs from his artful magic on the island he omnisciently controls. While Prospero’s early actions against
