BWW Review: Love (and Anger) in a Time of Plague: THE NORMAL HEART at Vagabonds
by Jack L. B. Gohn - February 29, 2016
But the play is not all philosophical argument, as important as this is: it also is a love story, a family tale, and an account of the 'band of brothers' that was Gay Men's Health Crisis. And like most great playwrights who turn their attention to public events, Kramer maintains a tight relationship between these stories. Kramer's artistic control of the huge canvas on which he paints is in the end what makes the play so powerful.

Fells Point Corner Theatre to Continue Season with VENUS IN FUR
by BWW News Desk - February 26, 2016
Fells Point Corner Theatre continues its exciting 2105­2016 Season (#FIREintheHOUSE) with this humorous and mysterious David Ives play. This spooky, sex­comedy begins at the end...the end of a long day. The Director has auditioned too many actresses and is left to this one. He's looking for the perfect actress to play the part in his "adapted" play - she's looking to give the best audition in her questionable career. Here is a suspense­packed study of blistering erotic (and semiotic) power play in which the director and the actress prove to be seriously, almost scarily adept.

BWW Review: Relatable HICK, Eleanor Roosevelt's Lesbian Love Story, at Theatre Project
by Jack L. B. Gohn - February 26, 2016
This was a substantial play that dealt thoughtfully with a host of issues. There's feminism: the story of a woman fighting her way through a male-dominated profession, rising from a little paper in Battle Creek to a national byline with the Associated Press. There's journalistic ethics: what happens when a reporter gets too close to a subject, and the tricky line between reporting and public relations. Then there's the problem encountered by an involuntary archivist: what to do with a trove of letters that reveal a historical personage's private life? And most of all, there's a strange love triangle: on the evidence of the play, Hickok was nearly as smitten with Franklin Roosevelt's policies as she was with his wife, going so far as to serve in his administration.
