Review: COWBOYS AND EAST INDIANS Defies Assumptions at DCPA

Review: FURLOUGH'S PARADISE at Geffen Playhouse

The clock is ticking, in the moment and in a greater sense, and a.k. payne’s characters can’t fully enjoy the luxury of a deep restorative breath. So neither, in this haunting but quite tender play, should we.

TheatreSquared’s latest production of William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, presented in collaboration with the National Asian American Theatre Company (NAATCO) and Play On Shakespeare, and ran through the end of March, is a lush, lyrical reimagining that breathes fresh life into one of Shakespeare’s most enduring comedies.
