by Marc Savitt
- Mar 27, 2021
WTF Artistic Director Mandy Greenfield’s choice to revive PARADISE BLUE is another of many highly relevant selections given prevailing racial tensions.

BWW Review: A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE at Williamstown Theatre Festival on Audible Theatre.
by Marc Savitt
- Dec 3, 2020
The presentation of the 2020 season at this time, in the audio only format, represents a creative approach to keeping the arts alive during the pandemic. The innovative solution, a collaboration spearheaded by WTF Artistic Director Mandy Greenfield, and Audible Artistic Producer Kate Navin provides employment for the artists and a body of work that, through Audible, can be accessed by a much broader (global) audience than traditional seasons. This is different to be sure - what isn’t during these unprecedented times? It is a bit like taking a step back to those “simpler times” when families gathered around the wireless and listened to radio plays. It may take a moment to adjust, but this production of STREETCAR stands up and will draw listeners in. I look forward to the additional six titles in the season scheduled to be released over the coming weeks.
