On Stage in January

   This is typically a quiet month for community theatre, but there are several shows you'll want to mark on your calendar (as always, if I've missed any, drop me a line and I'll correct the list):

- Josh M! - Marshall Theatre Alliance presents this showcase for the talented Josh Meredith, a night of classic cabaret entertainment conceived and performed by Josh and his friends (including American Idol contestant Chase Likens). The show will be presented Jan. 17 and 18 at 7 p.m. at the Francis-Booth Experimental Theatre.

- FDR - Marshall Artist's Series presents Ed Asner in a one-man show about the life of President Franklin Roosevelt, who guided the United States through four terms in office, starting in the Great Depression and continuing to nearly the end of World War II. The show will be presented at the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center on Jan. 30 at 7:30 p.m.

- Beauty and the Beast - Paramount Arts Center presents the Disney musical Jan. 10 at 7 p.m.

- Romeo and Juliet - Paramount Arts Center presents the classic Shakespeare play on Jan. 14 at 7 p.m.

God of Carnage -  Charleston Stage Company presents the drama at the WVSU Capitol Center Theater at 123 Summers Street on Jan. 17-19 and Jan. 24-26.

   And that's it! 2013 is off to a great start!
