Review: MY FAVORITE SOCIOPATH at Contemporary American Theater Festival
Thanks to a serious discussion wrought by the end, the play avoids being a mere entertainment. The characters are not merely competing, ruthlessly but wittily too, for whatever prizes journalism may have to offer, but are visibly debasing their souls to win those prizes, and with their souls, part o…
Review: REFUGEE RHAPSODY at Contemporary American Theater Festival
Refugee Rhapsody, by Yussef El Guindi, is kind of funny. You may consider that an odd trait for a play about violence, racism, immigration and the dangerous effects of celebrity culture, but it happens to be true. In our media environment we are frequently confronted by enormities that leave us very…
Review: BEST LINE WINS at Contemporary American Theater Festival
There are a lot of good laughs there.…
Review: THE SMOKER at Contemporary American Theater Festival

Review: THE DIVINE SISTER at Vagabond Players
THE DIVINE SISTER is a devilishly funny. It is a fun, comedic, irreverent, and enthralling. It's unlike any of the works that inspired it. The play will seem vaguely familiar at times, but it stands on its own as uniquely creative!…
Review: BOUNCE at Strand Theater Company
What did our critic think of BOUNCE at Strand Theater Company?…
Review: THE DIVINE SISTER at Vagabond Players Ignites Heavenly Delight!
In a world of change and confusion, some essential truths will always remain. Chief among these truths is this: Campy, irreverent, John Waters-style comedy will always have a home in Baltimore. Its current place of residence: Vagabond Players’ 110th season closer, The Divine Sister. …
