Review: SEARED at Austin Playhouse

by Sabrina Wallace · June 17, 2026

Austin Playhouse’s Seared, directed by Lara Toner Haddock, serves up a grounded, well-paced production with strong ensemble work and a working kitchen that adds real texture. The staging feels alive, even when Theresa Rebeck’s script leans preachy and predictable.…

Review: INSOMNIA CAFE at Dirty Gold Theatre

Review: INSOMNIA CAFE at Dirty Gold Theatre

by Sabrina Wallace · June 7, 2026

What happens when fandom becomes an obsession? Dirty Gold Theatre's Insomnia Cafe takes a ridiculous premise and turns it into something surprisingly unsettling. Equal parts dark comedy and psychological thriller, the play left me laughing one moment and questioning why the next.…

Review: WAKEY, WAKEY. at Hyde Park Theatre

by Sabrina Wallace · May 26, 2026

At first, Wakey, Wakey feels like an eccentric conversation filled with dry humor and scattered thoughts. Then the truth lands. Hyde Park Theatre’s production of Will Eno’s play is intimate and funny, and Ken Webster delivers a deeply human performance.…
