BWW Review: Outstanding PETER AND THE STARCATCHER at Brelby Theatre Company
by Jeanmarie Simpson - January 23, 2017

Theatre wherein the actor looks the witness in the eye and says, 'I know you know I'm an actor, and I know you're sitting there experiencing this with me. I know you see the lights and the seams in the muslin walls and the painted wood grain on the scenery. And I feel your heartbeat, and we're all breathing this air together.'
