**** Recommended **** Canterbury Summer Theatre opens its 55th season, "By Land or by Sea in 2023!" with one of my favorite tap-dance musicals, "Dames at Sea", which is a lot like the big splashy musicals of the thirties, and it’s nothing but fun.  "Dames at Sea" premiered in 1966 with Bernadette Peters as Ruby, had a successful run off-Broadway, and was adapted for television.  The Canterbury crew are terrific at both singing and dancing.  I really enjoyed this show!  4 Spotlights

**** Highly Recommended **** Summer means musicals!  So this summer, get yourself to the Studebaker Theatre (worth a look all on its own!) and see "Personality: The Lloyd Price Musical".  This jukebox musical will have you dancing in your seat – in the first five minutes!  I didn’t remember Lloyd Price, but I sure do remember his songs!  Great voices, great songs, great dancing.  What’s not to love?  4 Big Spotlights
