Hi there!
Thanks for checking out my Substack! The Poplar Review will be a place where I write about the theatre that moves me and makes me happy to be alive!
I’m a Black, 34 year-old, queer, cis guy originally from the culturally rich state of Louisiana. For me, theatre is more than just entertainment, its a portal to emotion, hopes, dreams, and even liberation! I’m fairly active in the theatre scenes of Boston, MA and Providence, RI — as an avid theatre goer, an occasional community theatre actor, and a proud committee and board member!
Here’s what you can expect from The Poplar Review:
Reviews of shows I see in the Boston, MA and Providence, RI area
Post show reflections on the elements that continue to resonate with me
A monthly rundown of shows I’ve seen and the ones I’m excited to see next
How often will I publish new pieces?
HA, who the hell knows? In all honestly, you can anticipate a handful of pieces each month. As a professional yapper (sorta, I’m a licensed mental health therapist) and perpetual tangential-thinker, I’m always teeming with thoughts that will find a productive home here on Substack.
