That titular workplace “Beef” kicks off a thoroughly entertaining whirlwind of backstabbing, deception and country club attire in the new season of Netflix’s anthology series. An excellent score by FINNEAS, strong performances, and unexpected humor anchor the show, but somewhat messy storytelling prevents this “Beef” from being perfectly well-done.

Those expecting to find Steve Carell star as a chicken in “Rooster,” HBO Max’s new comedy series, are going to be thoroughly disappointed. But those expecting him to play a beach-read writer who shows up at the college his daughter, Katie (Charly Clive), works at to comedically save her and her marriage will… well, also be disappointed.

A combination of electric dancing, vibrant lighting, and a surprisingly emotional mother-daughter story cement “Hell’s Kitchen” as a show absolutely worth checking out.

Upon hearing that its U.S. tour included the Fabulous Fox Theatre in St. Louis, I jumped at the chance to see the play. “Life of Pi,” the play adaptation by Lolita Chakrabarti, won five Oliver Awards (the British equivalent of America’s Tonys) in 2022, a year after its debut on the West End.

In the last few seconds of the music video for “Perfect Stranger,” released last October by FKA twigs, three sentences flash on the screen. They read: “Eusexua is a practice. […]

Some students loved it and listened to it on repeat, gushing publicly about her genius, others did not. I am a self-declared Swiftie (ENORMOUS Taylor Swift fan) and to be honest, I was underwhelmed. 

In the St. Louis Black Repertory Company’s production of Carlyle Brown’s play The African Company Presents Richard III, William Shakespeare lingers like one of his own ghosts. He stands as […]

When HBO announced a GoT Prequel House of the Dragon (HotD), which premiered on August 21, I was skeptical. The prequel takes place 300 years before the first season — but how would it avoid the problems that occurred at the end of GoT? What would make HotD a success, when the ending of GoT failed?

A big fan of musicals, Senior Cadenza Editor Sabrina Spence expected that the lack of music in the new “Mulan” would be a problem. She was wrong.
