Review: ON CEDAR STREET at Berkshire Theatre Group
Berkshire Audiences are fortunate that we often have opportunities to experience world premiere presentations like ON CEDAR STREET.
Review: THE DING DONGS Are Not Selling Avon
Despite its somewhat whimsical title, playwright Brenda Withers has crafted a taut story that is more dramatic cat-and-mouse game than comedic Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? Director Rebecca Bradshaw’s previous experience mounting the play at the Kitchen Theatre Company with this same trio of act
Review: GOLDA'S BALCONY at Shakespeare & Company
Annette Miller is outstanding.

Review: PHOTOGRAPH 51 at Berkshire Theatre Group
The subject matter, like Rosalind, does not allow for jokes.
Review: CABARET at Barrington Stage Company
The season opening CABARET on the Boyd-Quinson Stage, should leave little doubt that Alan Paul doesn’t play around; intends to carry on in the style and tradition that Berkshire audiences have come to both anticipate, and appreciate; and Julie’s words were justified.
