New City Players’ The 39 Steps Revels In Wicked Lampoon
Comic theater is a challengingly adroit meld of wry humor, physical slapstick, verbal timing, invisible stagecraft and a devotion to maximizing the opportunities for unscripted bits of business. All of this is delivered with an infectious joy in New City Players’ rendition of the ever-reliable The 39 Steps.
Wide Ranging Quality of Absurdist ‘Art Duty’ Requires Audience’s Commitment
Art Duty, a work passionately delivered with brimming enthusiasm by the LakeHouseRanchDotPng troupe in Miami Lakes, appears to be – at least in this subjective assessment – intermittently insightful and vague, deliberate and manic, entertaining and frustratingly undisciplined.
Plenty of Scares For The Whole Family At Heebie Jeebies

Torch Song Is Not What We Expected At Plays of Wilton
Fair warning to anyone going to The Foundry for Harvey Fierstein’s Torch Song because they want to see a play about a drag queen.

More on this later.

Big Ideas Abound in Main Street Players’ Revolutionists
When assassin Charlotte Corday declares, “We are all in a play that someone else is writing,” we know we’re stepping into a world steeped in existential tension.

Plaza Suite May Be 60 Years Old, But It Hasn’t Lost Its Charm

Distinctively Moving ‘Spy For Spy’ Engages With Unconventional Treatment
You never know what you’ll see when at Kutumba Theatre Project’s Spy for Spy. And that’s a good thing. Predictability causes us to disengage and leave the theater less than inspired. This production is an arresting depiction of individual moments of import that alternately shatter the soul and elicit bursts of laughter.
