BWW Reviews: CWRU/CPH MFA Prodction of TWELFTH NIGHT Goes Somewhat Awry
by Roy Berko
- Oct 17, 2013
The Case Western Reserve/Cleveland Play House MFA Acting Program's class of 2014 has some excellent actors who should do well in their professional pursuits. Their production of TWELFTH NIGHT has some performance highlights, but the students appear to have been done a disservice by what could be declared a misdirected version of TWELFTH NIGHT. Maybe they can use the experience to learn the necessity of consistency of intent and directing execution.
