Review: JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN, Royal Court Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Mar 27, 2026
When John Proctor is the Villain opened on Broadway last year, it lit a fire. Kimberly Belflower’s response to Arthur Miller’s The Crucible is more than play, it’s a movement.

Review: HADESTOWN, Lyric Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Feb 22, 2024
Created with director Rachel Chavkin, it’s a story of tragic love and politics, defeat and defiance. An epic anthem for the lovers and the runaways. The actors mostly new to Hadestown, Hades’ underground factory, with only Gloria Onitiri returning as Persephone (rather than a Fate) and Beth Hinton-Lever in the ensemble.
