Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
Round House Theatre

In a collaboration with Olney Theatre Center, Round House Theatre gives us Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, an August Wilson play with music set in the 1920’s. All of Wilson’s ten-play “Pittsburgh Cycle” should be compulsory viewing. This one tells the story of the hot-tempered Blues singer Ma Rainey, whose career was driven by American audiences love of Black music.
The story takes us into a recording studio session with Ma’s talent agent Irvin, the studio owner Sturdyvant, her backup musicians trumpeter Levee, bassist Slow Drag, pianist Toledo, and trombonist Cutler. As the musicians wait for her to show up, they begin to rehearse. But things go downhill quickly as they swap tales and accusations – fighting over which arrangement of her “Moonshine Blues” they can agree on. Will it be Levee’s version, the young hot-headed trumpeter who threatens to leave the band based on a recording offer from Sturdyvant? Or the arrangement they already know and which Cutler, the cool-headed leader of the group insists on? Toledo, the intellectual and book-smart philosopher of the group, tries to settle it. They get on to swapping tales and regaling each other with their personal struggles while awaiting Ma’s appearance for her decision.
The three-level stage has a winding staircase up to the engineer’s space, the main floor, and the musicians gathered in the basement placed center stage. Meanwhile Irvin is racing up and down the staircase trying to placate everyone when Ma finally arrives with her female lover, Dussie Mae, a hot little vixen who apparently swings both ways, and her nephew, Sylvester, who is a stutterer and who Ma declares will announce the band on the recording. This provides quite a bit of comic relief though it wouldn’t be politically correct these days. Ma’s insistence that Sylvester do the announcing freaks out Irv and the band. Spoiler Alert: After much groaning and protesting by everyone but Ma, he finally nails it.

The play showcases more than just a story of a moment in time at a recording session. It’s so much more with Ma’s deep bluesy voice, Levee’s extraordinary physicality and Dussie Mae’s adorable sexuality. Comedy and insight blend seamlessly amid the jive-talking, reefer-toking and raw emotional vulnerability as each character reveals themselves.
This play + music stars Nicole Michelle Haskins as Ma and ohmygod she is phenomenal. Big, brash and brassy she belts out the Blues like nobody’s business, owning the stage like the diva she plays. She is riveting, but so is the rest of the cast with beloved DC-based actors Craig Wallace as Cutler, Ro Boddie as Toledo, Yao Dogbe as Levee, Derrick Truby as Slow Drag, Chris Genebach as Sturdyvant, Jaylen Henderson as Sylvester, Michael Glenn as Irvin, Kanysha Williams as Dussie Mae, and Zach Brewster-Geisz as Policemen – all of whom you have seen in the area’s best theaters, many of them multi-award winners.
I loved seeing the crème de la crème of our leading local actors gel with each other in one perfect cast and the sleight of hand it took Director Lili-Anne Brown to pull it off so smoothly. Huge credit to Casting Director Sarah Cooney for assembling a cast who perform with fierceness and heart.

The Score

London’s West End comes to Harman Hall with the stunning original production The Source. It would not be overstating it to remark that the leads and creatives are British TV, film, and theatre royalty with arm’s-length bios and a huge cache of prestigious awards. The story is based on a unique meeting between the Prussian King, Frederick II and Johann Sebastian Bach the esteemed 18th century Baroque composer. Frederick, a fan boy of Bach’s work, invites him to his lavish castle to write a six-part fugue based on a few notes Frederick, a rank amateur, had conjured in a dream. The fly in the ointment is Bach has never written more than a three-part fugue. Well, as it turns out, no matter for the master.
Bach leaves his loving wife, Anna, to set out on the long journey to the home of his devoted son, Carl, who lives near the King in Potsdam. Before he arrives, Frederick has charged his four court composers with the task of turning a few scattered notes from a dream into a fugue. One of the composers is Carl, one of Bach’s 11 sons, who is as broke as his father and desperate to hold onto his position at court. The musicians turn up their collective sycophantic noses at the king’s folly, but to keep their jobs, they cobble together a simple composition which they present to the king.
At Carl’s home Bach receives the noted French philosopher Voltaire who arrives from a rendezvous with the king to see his old friend. The two men conspire not to reveal to the king that they know each other as Voltaire has plans to sing Bach’s praises and smooth his path into the king’s good graces. With spies in every corner and a king whose knowledge outside of his murderous regime is skewed, Bach tells his son, “We see through a glass darkly.”
 Nicole Ansari-Cox ( Anna Magdalena Bach) and Brian Cox (Johann Sebastian Bach) (Photo/Teresa Castracane).
Before his royal appointment, Bach meets the other composers who bet each other a massive sum of money that his composition will fail to please the king. With their meager fortunes on the line, Bach joins the bet yet ultimately wins the king’s favor, despite Bach calling him out for his soldiers ravaging women in his hometown of Leipzig. The ruthless king, unaccustomed to being dissed, tells Bach that war is war and these things happen.
At the time he is introduced to Frederick at court, he is composing cantatas, oratorios, fugues, suites and concertos, including compositions for weddings, funerals and executions for four churches… all while teaching Latin! There is a wonderful scene in which he counters Frederick’s naïveté by explaining the connection between music, emotion and mathematics. He tries to convince Frederick that his collection of notes has come from within his heart. In this moment we see a deeply spiritual Bach who gives no quarter to the shallow-minded king and that’s what makes this clever play so relatable. Speaking truth to power through the arts! Sticking it (warily) to a narcissist! Touché!
Writer Oliver Cotton’s play is vibrant, relevant, modern, utterly hilarious and based on historic lore. Period sets – including a magnificent black and gold harpsichord – and costumes by designer Robert Jones of Broadway and West End are splendid, especially for the flamboyant Frederick who swans around like a swathed peacock.

The wonderful performances in this once-in-a-lifetime theatrical experience linger longingly. Directed brilliantly by Trevor Nunn with the great Brian Cox as Johann Sebastian Bach; Nicole Ansari-Cox as Anna Magdalena Bach, Bach’s wife, who is off-stage Cox’s real wife; Stephan Hagan as King Frederick II, King of Prussia; Jaimie Wilkes as Carl Bach; Peter De Jersey as Voltaire; Geoffrey Towers as Herr Von Meckelsdorf; Matthew Romain, Christopher Staines and Toby Webster as court composers; Juliet Garricks as Emelia, a servant; Will Kerr as Helstein/Courtier; Jordan Kilshaw as Courtier; Max Pink as Courtier; Claire Morrissey as Maidservant.
Lighting Design by Johanna Town; Sound Design & Original Composition by Sophie Cotton.

Stephen Sondheim’s Musical “Merrily We Roll Along” is a Hit at Signature Theatre
Merrily We Roll Along
Signature Theatre
September 6, 2026

Deliciously witty, snarky and cleverly tuneful, Sondheim’s musical lures us into a world of backstage and backstabbing – where composers, lyricists, producers, actors and their pals play a glamorous, throat-cutting game of oneupmanship fueled by booze and the sweet smell of success. Who’s in and who’s out? Who to adore and who to ignore? In the world of show biz, the “movers and shapers” crave fame and fortune or, at the very least, to share in the celebrity’s spotlight.
In Merrily We Roll Along the plot toggles between 1959 to 1973 – and not in chronological order. For instance, it’s not until the second act that we learn how Mary, Franklin and Charley began their friendship one starry night on a shared rooftop in New York City searching the sky for the Russian satellite Sputnik.
To set the stage, Franklin Shepard is a matinee-idol-handsome, young Broadway composer. His sidekick Charley writes the lyrics and magazine writer slash theatre critic and neighbor Mary, is their BFF. Mary is madly in love with Frank, yet keeps it on the QT, because Frank is soon to be married to and divorced from sweet, adorable Beth and hard-on-the-bottle Mary is not in his league as a love interest. However, Mary is the glue that keeps everything and everyone merrily rolling along.

Despite the vagaries of a friendship regularly sealed by pinky promises, Frank, Charley and Mary continue to navigate their fights and betrayals. Frank becomes a wildly successful film producer with a wealth of glamorous friends Charley raises a family, while Mary’s desire to remain in Frank’s orbit keeps his fawning fans in check – including Gussie, his seductive leading lady.
Co-written by composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim with book by George Furth, Merrily We Roll Along is based on a 1934 play by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman. Directed in 1981 by Hal Prince, it had a very short run but a relevant theme about the perils and pitfalls of success. Recently revived on Broadway to huge acclaim, it garnered a stack of Tony Awards. I say this to let you know that this is not a national touring company. It is directed and choreographed by Signature Theatre’s Artistic Director Matthew Gardiner whose work I greatly admire. I’m only to see him named in press releases as ‘Director’ that I will be first in line to see whatever he has put his hand to.
From page to stage this production is dripping with glitz and glam featuring a shiny, tight cast who fling the show into star-studded orbit with a wealth of brilliant production creatives who nail every opportunity to elevate the visuals, the choreography and the music. And speaking of the music, it is rich and layered, funny and passionate, tender and torpid. Twenty-six glorious numbers backed by award-winning conductor Jon Kalbfleisch’s terrific 12-piece orchestra.

The Notebook – The Musical – A Tender Story of Love and Loss at the National Theatre

 The Notebook North American Tour Company (Photo/Roger Mastroianni).
Readers and filmgoers of Nicholas Sparks’ romance novel turned movie turned musical were out in force for opening night of The Notebook – The Musical. For a book that came out in 1996 and soared to the New York Times ‘Bestseller List’, the story of an aging couple housed in an American nursing home has enjoyed 30 years of dedicated fans.
Its story is a tender journey encompassing three generations of a single family who navigated the shifting sands of enduring relationships amid familial strife through patience, hope and the power of love.
Unfolding through the eyes of Older Noah whose wife Allie has degenerative dementia and believes him to be a “friend”, we see them first as teens exploring a summer romance. Her parents disapprove of Young Noah, a cheerfully witty high school dropout with hazy plans for the future, while Young Allie hails from a prominent family and is bound for college after this seaside summer holiday. Nonetheless, like Romeo and Juliet, their secret romance flourishes fueled by dreams to be together forever and live in an old house he plans to restore for her. When Noah goes off to war, they lose touch until Allie discovers him living alone in the house he restored and they rekindle what was lost.
 Alysha Deslorieux (Middle Allie) and Ken Wulf Clark (Middle Noah) (Photo/Roger Mastroianni).
The device that stitches the story together is a notebook, really a diary, written by Allie throughout her life before her memory loss and which her husband tenderly reads to her each day hoping to jog her memory and recognize him as her husband. It’s a heart-wrenching story for those with loved ones suffering this incurable disease, but Sparks gives it compassion, vision and hope, plus a happy ending, at least as happy as anyone could hope for.
Moments of joy and humor buoy grief and hopelessness, but the reality of care homes and the cycle of love and loss color the helplessness of those who do the caring. Twenty-two musical numbers backed by an eight-piece orchestra lift this emotionally charged musical.
