I love regional theater and New Rep is one of the best. I have been to a few of New Rep's…read moreproductions (most recently "1776") and have always enjoyed them. There is really not a bad seat in the house and I have sat everywhere here (my kid does community theater and uses this space as well). The seats are comfy too. It is a small theater but seats about 300+ but have also seen a show in the tiny black block downstairs (another space I love and very intimate). The location cannot be beat with tons of parking and a few dining options in various price ranges for pre- or post-dining and/or drinking. The Mosesian space is lovely and the New Rep is a wonderful theater experience without having to trek into the city.

I have only been to 1 show here, but will definitely go back. Driving from the Worcester area, I…read moredidn't know what to expect at the theater. The Mosesian theater seems very small & intimate, but holds nearly 350 people. The theater was very clean & modern, like a modern movie theater, with a low stage. Everything still seemes new. The seats were roomy & comfortable, with ample leg room. The seats are stadium style, and at a pretty good incline, so no tall people can block your view. Plus you are looking down at the stage. The first row of seats is close to eye level with the performers, as the stage is about 12-18 inches off the ground. Great pics of the inside seating of the theater can be found here: http://www.actorsequity.org/newsmedia/news2006/Mar1.NewRepTheatre.asp There is plenty of free parking in a covered garage adjacent to the building. I have not been to the Black Box theater underneath the Mosesian (holding about 90 people), but am anxious to try it. I saw Amadeus in April 2013 & it was fantastic. Can't wait for their upcoming schedule.

It is rare to find an angel on earth but believe me when I say there are a few angels at BAD and…read moreleading them all is Ms. Melissa. In the field of dance where everyone strives for the perfect figure and a perfect routine, Ms. Melissa teaches work and a lot of it, she never gives up and will never let you either. She loves to dance and teaches the kids just that. With her kind heart and words she pushes every single girl to do her best while always respecting and encouraging. The girls don't work towards a recital, they learn technique and will run through many different dances until together they decide what will be their final performance piece. BAD will put on a beautiful yearly recital, in an amazing theater with costumes and lighting and great music. Every year at the end of the recital someone will come up to me and say; "in our old studio the recital was much nicer... the level was higher...". Could be... I can't compare, but, Ms. Melissa isn't about the show. Ms. Melissa is about opportunities and making sure every single girl get her moment center stage. She's about improvement, making sure every girl dances better by the end of the year, and most of all she's about confidence every girl believes in her heart she is the best dancer that she could be.

We attended on Sunday as walk-ins for the 6 PM show which was a mix of comedians. I would say the comedy is hit or miss depending on experience, but they want to make you laugh and that is always a good thing! The $20 cover charge for the Sunday show is too much in my opinion, and we almost didn't stay, but the gentleman at the door gave us a reduced rate which was super nice! We are coming back in a few weeks for a ticketed headliner and really looking forward to it. Wish they added some Improv shows to shake things up.

There is a balcony area if you wish to pay extra for your ticket as well, but it is a bit farther from the stage so if you want up close and personal, go GA and get there early. Limited street parking, but ample garages very close that charge $20 for event parking. Departing was quicker than a lot of venues I have been to from garage just up the street. Security and staff are quick to process and get you in. May want to pregame as drinks are a bit spendy here.

Also the lighting effects for the different songs was good. We were quite close to the stage so had a great view. Great show! Restrooms are in the back and even though at the end of the show the women's had a long line but it moved fast. There are 17 stalls so that definitely helps move the line. There is a merch counter and a bar. The bar closed at the end of the show, so if you're looking for drinks or water make sure to get them during the show. Overall we had a great time!

We also went out for drinks after, so there. Anywho, went here to see Stopkiss. I'll get to the review on the show in a bit. First, the theater. If you go to the Waltham Public Library, walk over to Spring St., look down the road and where your blindspot is, that's the theater. It is a hidden gem that takes a bit to find, but worth the look. At the entranceway, you'll find you typical, small theater atrium before you descend stairs into their lair. The theater itself is a small space, but very, very well used. And this production was no exception to that. Stopkiss has everything going for it, from the direction, to the acting, to the choice of lights and music (I gave my friend crap for one song, but it was only because it gave me visions of a Spanish Soap Opera at a crucial time in the show, not ruining, but adding a bit of levity to an otherwise melancholy moment). The cast is fantastic, with strong moments of acting coming from everyone, and I mean everyone, in the cast. The two lead actresses Jennifer McCartney and Gabrielle Hatcher steal the show, from what, I'm not sure, and are very well supported by Michael Soulios, Jason Rutledge, Andrew Boncoddo, Carolyn Cafarelli, and Melanie Bernier. Tatiana Rutledge has maintained her keen eye and artistry and only shown strong strides of development in her role as director of the show. The lighting design, well crafted set and, overall, highly kind stage crew make this a must see. Tatiana, much love. Z
