Posted on May 29, 2013 by Artsalot

I don’t consider myself to be a very emotional being. Well, that’s not entirely accurate. I’m intuitive and perceptive with regard to emotion, I’m just not easily or often found actually exhibiting emotions from the sentimental, romantic, sad or distraught … Continue reading →

REVIEW – Bells Are Ringing – West Valley Light Opera

Posted on July 8, 2012 by Artsalot

There’s an enchantingly nostalgic and a much appreciated tongue-and-cheek feel to Bells Are Ringing. This 1950’s musical, which saw a Broadway revival in 2001, is rarely done in comparison to many of its contemporary musicals and after seeing West Valley … Continue reading →

Posted on June 11, 2012 by Artsalot
