2011 | Best (Dramatic) Ghost Story

When you've been around as long as Phoenix Theatre (founded as Phoenix Little Theatre in 1920), you're bound to be haunted by something. In the case of the theater, that something is a cast of five distinct ghosts. The best-known is dubbed "Mr. Electric." He's described as an old man who sits on the pipes that hold up the theater's lights. Reportedly, there's also a spirit called "Tiny Dancer," said to be the specter of a little ballerina.

2002 | Best Comeback By A Local Theater Troupe

After several consecutive seasons of mostly ill-conceived dreck, the Valley's oldest theater company rebounded with what was arguably the best show of the year. Phoenix Theatre's production of Sophisticated Ladies was so letter-perfect in performance and execution, it was nearly enough to make us forget the same company's laughably awful take on A Streetcar Named Desire of two seasons ago.

Nearly Naked Theatre's Shakespeare's R & J Is an Early-Season Highlight

By Robrt L. Pela | Thu, January 12, 2012

Theater fans are anticipating Nearly Naked Theatre's upcoming production of Spring Awakening, but I'll venture that nothing else the company does this year will surpass its remount of Shakespeare's R & J, playing now at Phoenix Theatre. The bare... More »
Wonder Women

Girl groups of the '60s made their musical mark with pristine pop, manicured beehives, and incomparable harmonies. Same's true of The Wonderettes, a high school prom quartet of young ladies with big voices. Phoenix Theatre's production of The Marv... More »
