Review: MEET ME AT DAWN is a Contemplative Look at Managing Grief
by James Lindhorst - April 14, 2025
MEET ME AT DAWN is not macabre or depressing but it is sorrowfully somber in tone. Michelle Hand and Lizi Watt enmesh with contemplative, cathartic, and pensive portrayals. The subtleties in their doleful performances are as impressive as their outward acting. Larissa Lury’s solemn direction creates ruminative storytelling with long-lasting effect.

Review: St. Louis Actors' Studio's WITH is a Humorous and Melancholic End-of-Life Story
by James Lindhorst - April 11, 2025
WITH is the authentic love story of two cantankerous and snarky old folks whose time together has beaten the odds. Their life has been blessed with longevity and fond memories. They have lived a long enough to raise a child and experience joy, sorrow, happiness, grief, and the full complement of human emotions. But now, Minnie and Clifford are facing illness and their own mortality. Pileggi’s restrained direction and her actors’ honest portrayals keep WITH from wallowing in cloying insincerity and sadness. Reichert, Weinsting, and Pileggi blends equal parts humor, sweetness, and melancholy to tell Lewis’ end-of-life story with dignity and grace.

Review: Good Performances and Imaginative Direction Can't Save AT THE WEDDING from a Banal Script
by James Lindhorst - April 07, 2025
West End Player’s AT THE WEDDING is a well-constructed show with strong directorial vision, good performances, but it is saddled by a muddled narrative. The talented cast works diligently to overcome Bryna Turner’s ponderous script. The early scene between Carlo and Carly (the bridesmaid) lays an expectation that AT THE WEDDING is a droll relationship comedy, but the scenes that follow lack the same wit and caustic sense of humor. Is AT THE WEDDING a comedy or a drama?  Turner’s writing seems stuck in limbo unsure of what it really wants to be.
