| Olney Theatre Center, in Olney, Md., will be offering ''A.D. 16'' for streaming from March 16-20. (Anyone here see it during its recent run?) ''A.D. 16'' focuses on a teenaged Mary Magdalene (Phoenix Best) who falls for the boy next-door, Jesus (Ben Fankhauser). |

| The show is VERY funny. Yes, it could use some fine tuning, but it's in very good shape as is. I'm linking the Peter Marks Washington Post review, which can fairly be called a rave. | |

| I saw it last Saturday night. Best (and the rest of the cast) is fantastic. The show has a good base but needs fine-tuning. The songs almost all went on way too long (multiple repeats of choruses with the exact same lyrics, etc) and the main relationship thread of the show gets a bit lost in the middle. It is quite funny and clever (at one point Mary makes a reference to knowing exactly how to love him, and the antagonist’s songs had me dying laughing). Since I saw it in person I’m not going to stream it but if you’re not able to see it, $45 to stream it is probably worth it, if only for the cast. |
