It was back in January, 2000, that I began my writing for Broadwayworld.com. As I begin my 7th year, it is time to look back on the wonderful productions I've seen during 2012.

It's been a busy year. I've written 37 theater reviews and 10 other articles.

I've been to the Shakespeare Theatre Company (7), Center Stage (6) Everyman Theatre (5), Signature Theatre (4), Kennedy Center (4), Arena Stage (4), Rep Stage (2), Olney Theatre Center (2), Ford's Theatre (1), Heritage Players (1), and the Gloucester Stage Co. (1).
