Review: PROOF at 4th WALL THEATRE COMPANY

Review: PROOF at 4th WALL THEATRE COMPANY

by Brett Cullum · September 12, 2026

4TH Wall does wonderful work here, and I really admire David Auburn’s script more for what it doesn’t do rather than what it does. It never really boils over into any sort of climax and refuses to offer an easy solution for anyone’s relationship in the show.…

Review: THORNFIELD at ZOOM SHAKESPEARE PRODUCTIONS

Review: THORNFIELD at ZOOM SHAKESPEARE PRODUCTIONS

by Brett Cullum · September 8, 2026

It is painstakingly faithful to the book, save for some extra beats that make Jane a more modern-minded woman. Rebecca Bernstein’s performance is wonderful and a career-high for her so far. Luke Hales is the right Rochester, and Todd Thigpen is a delicious Mason.…

Review: LATE NITE CATECHISM: SISTER ROLLS THE DICE at Stages Houston

by Brett Cullum · August 5, 2026
