Review: TOPDOG/UNDERDOG at Canadian Stage
by Ilana Lucas - Oct 4, 2023


By focusing on the slower, more structured rounds of boxing over the fast-paced hustle of a card sharp, M’Carthy’s production invites us to watch the hands when we really should be watching the eyes. It’s a thoughtful idea that doesn’t fully pay off in dividends of energy and connection to the audience, leading Canadian Stage’s season-opener to be a good production of a great play.

Review: TOPDOG/UNDERDOG at The Gamm Theatre
by Erica Cataldi-Roberts - Sep 13, 2023


What did our critic think of TOPDOG/UNDERDOG at The Gamm Theatre? The Gamm theatre launches its 2023-24 season with Suzan-Lori Parks’ multi-award winning play, TOPDOG/UNDERDOG. On its surface, it’s the story of two Black brothers, Lincoln and Booth, who share a troubled past and are now sharing a room in a squalid boardinghouse while trying to figure out a path forward. Underneath, however, is a text that is rich with multiple layers of interpretation and commentary on the American Dream, capitalism, Black masculinity, and so much more.
