Review: THE GLASS MENAGERIE at Theatrical Outfit
by Joseph Harrison - Nov 2, 2025
There’s a particular thrill in seeing a classic American play reimagined with both reverence and boldness. Theatrical Outfit’s new production of Tennessee Williams’ THE GLASS MENAGERIE, which opens its 49th season and plays through November 23rd, does just that. It effectively reminds us why this memory play endures more than 80 years after its premiere, while offering a fresh perspective and a deep, emotional resonance that will keep Atlanta audiences talking long after the final bows.

BWW Review: A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM at Alliance Theatre
by Amy Zipperer - Sep 25, 2018
I consider myself a Shakespeare purist of the worst sort. I wax snobbish at Shakespeare productions where Hamlet, language updated, sounds like a California surfer: 'Dude. It was my uncle, Bro.' I scoff at productions that situate themselves in some setting that's divergent from the original. Macbeth cannot be a one-man show set in an insane asylum, and Midsummer is definitely no good in a Catholic school for girls. But soft! Methinks I've stumbled upon an anomaly that's making me rethink my whole purist disdain for the Creative Shakespeare Catalogue O' Crap. That anomaly is Alliance Theatre's production of A Midsummer Night's Dream that's playing on an outdoor stage at the Atlanta Botanical Garden through October 21. Though the production liberally infuses the Bard's most delightful play with a healthy dose of our 21st- century American vernacular, frames the action of the play in a moern garden being outfitted for a wedding, and cuts a significant portion of the original play, it's still pretty darn magical.
