Review: ROMEO AND JULIET, Shakespeare's Globe
by Katie Kirkpatrick - May 6, 2025

In this version of the familiar story, we are whisked away to the 1800s American West. The sparring young men are now gun-touting cowboys, the ball is a barn dance, and the soundtrack is all banjos and whistles. It’s a bold transposition of the star-crossed Verona lovers, but one that works surprisingly well.

Review: GIGI & DAR, Arcola Theatre
by Robert Vesty - Oct 10, 2024

Two young women, Gigi and Dar, are dressed in khaki and clutch machine guns. They are guarding a roadblock and out to kill time. With just six of their 730 days of conscription to go until they can return to Civvy Street, their fantasies about the future (travels, marriage and internships) are beginning to fizz. See what our critic had to say.

Review: MACBETH at Shakespeare Theatre Company
by Dara Homer - Apr 15, 2024

STC’s Macbeth highlights brutal pairs: war and domestic life, grief and humor, brief words and permanent consequences. While the setting could feel unassuming—indeed, audiences must make their way through the parking lot of a Home Depot when arriving via metro—it also shows how extravagant it is to create a theatre space from scratch. This over-the-top, hollowed-out aesthetic fits the world of the play, where titles and status belie a fear of impermanence. Combined with raw, vulnerable performances, this is a powerful take on the timeless tragedy.
