EVERYTHING Under the Sun – The Brickhouse Theater
Reviewed by Amalisha HuEck
Another fun Hot Summer Nights – the musical series 2025, is taking place at the Write Act Repertory at the Brickhouse Theater this summer. But, it is not just another fun hot summer night, it escalated to something great; brilliant script, fantastic singing and acting is real – a comedic script got its proper attention. The actors are super expressive, funny and they all take chances. They are reckoning the best music and the truly fun impressions.
What a pleasant surprise! I truly enjoyed those couple of hours. Bravo everyone!
Producing Artistic Director John Lant of Write Act Repertory is pleased to give us a collection of Five World Premiere original one act plays, written by Write Act Creators for a limited run of performances. The show runs from July 19th to August 9th only. I would greatly recommend this play if you want to laugh, enjoy great performances, and relax in a musical filled with romance, magic, memories, and friendship.

The fourth act is The Island of Mr. Lebeau, written and directed by Susan C. Hunter. Music is composed by Tom Shelton. And the final act is called Uncommon Time, written, directed and composed by Jorge A. Pulido.

The Write Act Repertory in its 26th Season is moving along with quite the different speed. As an artist-based organization with over 100 volunteers whose members include Producers, Writers, Actors, Directors, Designers, Technical Crew and Personnel, Write Act Rep specializes and is dedicated to the development of original plays, lesser-known works by established writers and adaptations of classical-themed materials and musicals. With their participation they enrich the lives of the multicultural community and create a positive education and visual artistic impact within our community.
Currently, one of Write Act Rep’s outlets provides members the opportunity to produce and create original scripts developed and premiered exclusively with their resident professional artists. They encourage their artists through the continued engagement and immersion in an environment of artistic safety, to forward the company’s mission as well as their own personal goals in the entertainment field.
