BWW Review: Jen Silverman's Alarmingly-Introduced ROOMMATE at Everyman
by Jack L. B. Gohn - October 31, 2016
This is not a show about big issues; the pathos comes from the human condition, to the basic facts of which the play is usually true, even when operating as a well-tooled laughter-delivery-vehicle. If there can be said to be a moral to Silverman's story, it is simply that it is extremely hard to become close to someone, and even harder to stay close. A good thing to be reminded of, and especially in such an amusing way.

BWW Review: A Rare and Topical Revival of ANNE OF THE THOUSAND DAYS at CSC
by Jack L. B. Gohn - October 24, 2016
Anne, like Henry, is engaged in more than just affairs of the heart. She too ends up playing (and winning, on the best terms available to her) the game of thrones. Just before her arrest, she is offered a choice, which she recognizes lies between survival and legacy. Her choice of the latter is immediate, and has long-lasting positive effects, dwarfing those made by her ostensibly more powerful husband.
