BWW Review: Upstream Theater's Startling Production of THE DEATH OF ATAHUALPA
by Chris Gibson - April 03, 2011
I can always depend on Upsteam Theater to deliver a unique theatrical experience, and with the US premiere of THE DEATH OF ATAHUALPA they continue in the fine tradition they've firmly established, providing an audience with a fresh look at the last days of the Inca empire. Writer/director Philip Boehm has produced an engaging adaptation of this story that's buoyed considerably by the ensemble work of musicians Son de America, who give the play a distinctive voice with their spirited underscoring. The play also features an exceptional cast that fully invests themselves in this startling and enlightening presentation.

BWW Review: Stray Dog Theatre's Cute Production of YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN
by Chris Gibson - April 01, 2011
Charles M. Schulz, the creator of Peanuts, had the ability to communicate tiny bits of wisdom and insight in the space of three panels (six panels in the Sunday funnies) of rudimentary art. And, while most of his colleagues would head straight for a punchline, Schulz tended to take a more philosophical approach. The musical adaptation, YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN, originally written by Clark Gesner, and subsequently revised by Michael Mayer and Andrew Lippa, attempts to capture the essence of Schulz's work, but even as an introduction to the characters, the results are mixed at best. Stray Dog Theatre continues their current season with a charming production of this uneven musical, that's engaging and enjoyable more often than not.

by BWW News Desk - April 01, 2011
Never before presented in English, this historical-folklorical tragical-comical reenactment of THE DEATH OF ATAHUALPA will be making its world debut in St. Louis this April.

Plays depicting the Spaniard Pizarro's conquest of the majestic Inca Empire have been orally handed down through the generations, and now English-speaking audiences will have the unique opportunity to witness a work never before performed in the United States.
