True Blue or The Press Gang - 1938 - Broadway Articles Page 2

There is no doubt that Östgötateatern’s production of *Mrs. Doubtfire* will be loved just as much as the movie. Funny, heartwarming, and touching. A wonderful family musical. As the curtain falls, I have a happy tear in the corner of my eye and a big smile on my face.

Silo Theatre’s Auckland production of Job, playing at Q Theatre’s Loft, is a superb rendering of the Broadway hit — a two-hander that earns every ounce of its reputation. Walking in tired on opening night, I fully expected to coast through the evening. Instead, I found myself pinned to my seat, unwilling to miss a beat of this psychological thriller. The sheer ingenuity of the writing keeps you leaning in, compelled and ‘thinkingly’ disoriented in equal measure, with no real sense of where the story is headed until it’s already arrived. NOTE R16 Rating: coarse language and references to distressing adult themes, along with the use of a weapon on stage, loud sound effects, haze, and bright and strobe lighting.

Come From Away is the musical we need right now. As political tensions mount, we need to remember the kindness shown by our neighbor Canada during a most critical time for our United States.

Director, Ben Galosi keeps the laughs coming in this 90 minute intermission-free show.  The humor is derived not only from the characters’ excessively bleeding hearts, but also hilariously random moments of aggressive chaos and mayhem.  A special salute to the EPAC stage crew who have a lot of cleaning up to do at the conclusion of each performance.

What did our critic think of JASON CAMPBELL at Rialto Community Theatre?

I never thought I would have such a good time watching five women talk about their sexual organs, but I absolutely understood every moment as if I had been lucky enough to have been assigned female at birth.
