by Roy Berko - October 01, 2012

Congrats to Dobama for not steering away from the script because of the title and the realistic language.

BWW Reviews: Disappointing THE WINTER'S TALE at Great Lakes Theater
by Roy Berko - September 30, 2012

Due to the lack of focused directing by Jesse Berger, the production never sets a clear course and leaves so much of Shakespeare's brilliance untapped.
