Just a girl, standing in front of the internet, asking them to read her theatre blog.

Welcome to my blog. You’ll like it here. We have candy.

Intro to my blog

Hi, internet. My name is Lori, and welcome to my theatre blog (or, as my grandma would call it, my “blob.” She mixes up words sometimes. It’s cute and charming, and certainly not alarming. Hi, grandma).

In this blog, expect to see my reviews of shows I go see in Toronto, New York and beyond. Expect to read posts on Broadway-related news (and my reactions to said news), posts on the industry at large, and ramblings on theatre-related topics. This blog is a space for theatre fans to geek out together, so I really hope you feel welcome here!

It’s a jukebox musical featuring the music of Roy Orbison (“Oh, Pretty Woman,” “You Got It,” “Handle with Care,” etc). I’m typically a bit hesitant about jukebox musicals,…
