BWW Feature: THE ADVENTURE OF LIFE Celebrates Artist's Journey Through Unlikely Pregnancy
by Robert Encila-Celdran - January 21, 2022
It sounds simple enough, but not according to Veronika Duerr, whose journey to a viable pregnancy became a life lesson unto itself. In fact, she was so changed by the 'miraculous' experience that it spawned yet another gift: an original, one-woman theatrical performance documenting the challenges and joys of pregnancy.

BWW Review: Dynamic Ensemble Delivers Devastating Performance of DEATH OF A SALESMAN
by Robert Encila-Celdran - January 11, 2022
Director Matt Bowdren helms this steady ship and fashions a piece of theater that strikes an impeccable balance between nuance and grandiloquence. With delicate adherence to Miller's sensibilities, actors never go out of bounds even as they achieve their bombastic heights; conversely, poignant moments are so intimate that one feels almost privy to a character's inner resolve.

BWW Feature: VENUS IN FUR STEAMS UP NEW YEAR at Arizona Rose Theatre
by Robert Encila-Celdran - January 03, 2022
Some folks can be ostensibly sanguine in the face of disquieting global crises. Take Mark Klugheit, for instance, who is certainly attuned to the tumult of the news cycle, but whose singular antidote to the world's chaos and gloom keeps him in sober perspective: his love for the theater.

BWW Feature: VENUS IN FUR Steams Up New Year at Arizona Rose Theatre
by Robert Encila-Celdran - January 01, 2022
It begins as a strained interplay between a fretful playwright/director and a high-strung, vulgar actress desperate for an audition. No sooner had they acknowledged their unsuitable chemistry than they found themselves enmeshed in a clever pas de deux that blurs our sense of reality. It’s an intellectual dance that unearths a primal game of sexual submission and domination, echoing what happens in the novel. A compelling point of reference: “Masochism” is a word inspired by the author’s surname.
