BWW Reviews: Rebeck Loses Some Edge but the Cast Does Not in SEMINAR at FPCT
by Jack L. B. Gohn - November 16, 2014
Seminar starts out strong, ripping into the fabric of the business of teaching fiction writing with knife-edged one-liners and characters you love to despise; then, as the plot, the characterizations, and the theme take a hairpin turn, it emerges that, no, the teaching is not a scam after all, the students' fiction has possibilities, and the characters are not what we thought them. All Rebeck's hilarious savagery dissipates. Like Rebeck's writing and show-running for the first season of TV's Smash, it is a little too affectionate toward the business and the people in it to stay as scathing as Rebeck could and should keep it.

BWW Reviews: POE'S LAST STANZA Stands Without Fourth Wall
by Cybele Pomeroy - November 06, 2014
If you're from Baltimore, you probably know there's no shortage of shows about the city's unofficial mascot, Edgar Allan Poe, often by impersonators who speak in the poet's voice. You may have seen one or more of them. I think I am personally acquainted with three actors who pay tribute to Baltimore's Bard.
