JUST IN! The National Tour of “The Wiz” at the Plaza Theatre (Review) If there was one true American fairytale, it would have to be L. Frank Baum’s 1900 novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Having entered the public domain 70 years ago, the sheer number of Oz ada…

My review of the national tour of The Wiz is now LIVE! Despite an underwhelming physical production, the show was still able to capture the heart of the story and shine. justintheatrereviews.wordpress.com/2026/02/28/j...

Man’s Best Friend

Here to scream about another new album. Sabrina Carpenter has released an album full of hits. Love love love. open.spotify.com/album/1aqg30...

Bachelor in Paradise ends next week, and I simply do not feel that this show is going to reach any sort of satisfying conclusion. I do not know how viewership has been, but if they fumble next season as well, then I feel that may be it for Paradise.

All my reactions to the big news from yesterday is on the other app so I’m just gonna say :) here ❤️‍🔥

Imagine if people had said no to The Wiz or Wicked because people thought they "sounded stupid?" (3/3)

It is one of our fairytales and is one of the most widely known stories ever, with countless retellings. I don't know why people are discussing it as if it is a bastardization of the 1939 film, when as far as I can tell, there is no connection. Just watch it or don't. (2/3)

I probably won't care to watch the Oz-themed series that was announced yesterday, but I think people are overthinking it. The 1939 masterpiece was not the first adaptation of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and it was far from the last. This story is ingrained in American lore. (1/3)

A Matter of Time

Using my first post on this platform to spread the word about Laufey’s glorious new album, “A Matter of Time.” A true gem. Nobody is making music like she is.
