by Greer Firestone - August 10, 2017
Since 2008 UD Rep Ensemble has been the consistent quintessential professional theatre in the state.

BWW Review: BAREFOOT IN THE PARK at Candlelight Music Theatre
by Greer Firestone - July 22, 2017
Great actors immerse themselves in their character such that one cannot consider anyone else playing the role. They study the writer's words to develop a full sense of character; bringing to life every shade and every nuance. Could you conceive anyone else but Pacino playing Michael Corleone or anyone else but Streep in SOPHIE'S CHOICE? No, of course not.

BWW Previews: BAREFOOT IN THE PARK at Candlelight Music Theatre
