Henrik Ibsen was a true great. No cast, no director should be allowed to desecrate that greatness by a mediocre performance of an Ibsen work. I am glad to say that the StageLight & Magic production team and cast are completely innocent of any such crime in their performance of ...

Caliban's Rebellion is a dramatic adaptation of a work of Shakespeare in typical CenterStage Productions' style. Drawing on The Tempest for inspiration Caliban's Rebellion attempts to paint Caliban in a more forgiving light and give a slightly different view from the traditional interpretation. So, you may be wondering… is it ...

Remember Knocked Up? Geek meets girl. Geek sleeps with girl. Out pops baby. Well, Juno is more of the same... except all the parent's to be are highschoolers. Usually, I wouldn't be interested by something as mundane and Oprahesque as a drama comedy about unplanned teenage pregnancy. However, Jason Reitman's ...

The Devil and Billy Markham by Shel Silverstein Directed by Ifaz Bin Jameel Starring Marsh Dodanwela The end of the fourth and final installment of the Noir Theater Festival, by StageLight&MagicThe last time I saw Marsh Dodanwela on stage he was wearing a monk's habit and doing what to the un-trained eye appeared ...

The Interview by David Mamet Directed by Feroz Kamardeen Produced by Amrik Wilson Starring Jithendra Seneviratne & Sashane Perera Part of the fourth and final installment of the Noir Theater Festival, by StageLight&MagicA lawyer and his interogator sitting in hell.
