Review: VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE at Cygnet Theatre
by ErinMarie Reiter - Oct 16, 2025
Christopher Durang’s “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” is a riotous blend of sibling rivalry, absurdist farce, and Chekhovian melancholy. A laugh-out-loud farce with real heart, Director Anthony Methvin finds balance in the absurdity while still landing the emotional punches.

Review: A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE at Backyard Renaissance
by ErinMarie Reiter - Jul 7, 2025
Backyard Renaissance’s “A Streetcar Named Desire” isn’t just a drama; it’s a ghost story. Director Rob Lutfy leans into the spectral energy of Tennessee Williams’ New Orleans, conjuring a version of the classic that feels both timeless and supernatural. With ghostly music, poetic visuals, and achingly poignant performances, this production transforms Blanche DuBois’ descent into madness into something mythic.
