Review: THE URMETAZOAN at Barrington Stage Company
by Marc Savitt - Oct 7, 2026
The play provides a lot of food for thought. What seems to come through most strongly in the final analysis is an inability for the two sisters to connect meaningfully and their portrayal of the tragedy of not knowing someone anymore.

Review: THE LEHMAN TRILOGY is an Epic, Exceptional Experience at MILWAUKEE REP
by Kelsey Lawler - Jan 20, 2026

It’s The Lehman Trilogy, winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Play. It’s three acts, three actors, three epic hours of theater now on stage at the Milwaukee Rep.

Review: Snider’s Brilliant Score Anchors HILDEGARD at Prototype under Pulitzer’s Caring Eye
by Richard Sasanow - Jan 12, 2026
This is Beth Morrison’s first year as sole curator, producer and presenter of New York’s PROTOTYPE Festival of indie opera/music theatre. She’s also midwife for the birth of Sarah Kirkland Snider’s gorgeously composed HILDEGARD, its centerpiece, which I heard at the Gerald Lynch Theater at John Jay College on January 11. Morrison has proven herself, once again, to be true to her eponymous organization’s seeming marching orders: “I never do anything twice.”
