Review: TWELFTH NIGHT at the Masque Theatre Boasts an Ensemble Cast of Dreams
by Jaime Uranovsky - Jul 12, 2023
TWELFTH NIGHT is, without a doubt, my favourite of all Shakespeare’s plays. It is, probably for this reason, also the Shakespeare play I have had the honour of watching the most times. Despite this, I have never emerged from this play feeling like I have seen a repeat of the same production.
Claremont Dramatic Society Presents PLAYING WITH FIRE By August Strindberg at Masque Theatre
by Julie Musbach - Jul 9, 2018
August Strindberg, one of Europe's most respected literary figures, wrote only three comedies, one of which is this one-act play about having nothing to do. Set at the beach house where Knut and his wife Kerstin live with his parents, Playing With Fire deals with the ever-present web of relationships, and how to untangle them - if it's at all possible. Can there be love without jealousy? Strindberg's hypothesis is that love both generates and feeds off jealousy. Will Knut and Kerstin's marriage survive the arrival of their close friend, Axel, as all three "play with fire"?
