Beckett’s Existential Happy Days Gifts Triumphant Performance
Thinking Cap Theatre’s stunning production of Beckett’s Happy Days, offers an unmitigated triumph of a performance by Karen Stephens expertly molded by Nicole Stodard, but to say this absurdist bleak work is not for everyone is a gross understatement.

Thinking Cap’s Emperor of the Moon Is Delightful Lune-acy
