Review: MY MAMA AND THE FULL SCALE INVASION at Woolly Mammoth Theatre
by Jake Bridges - September 18, 2023
What did our critic think of MY MAMA AND THE FULL SCALE INVASION at Woolly Mammoth Theatre? How do you tell the story of a person who has lived 1,000 lives? How do you capture a life that includes being born into Nazi occupation, raising a child, surviving a massive nuclear accident, and a full-scale invasion of a homeland…all in a tight, 90-minute package?

Review: EVITA at Shakespeare Theatre/Harman Hall
by Mary Lincer - September 15, 2023
What did our critic think of EVITA at Shakespeare Theatre/Harman Hall? The two hour show packs 17 years of her life into a constantly moving, theatrical matrix including social, political, and women's fashion history which can often be quite affecting because Pimentel's acting finds simple moments of true emotion amid the bustle and action.

Review: MONUMENTAL TRAVESTIES at Mosaic Theater
by Roger Catlin - September 13, 2023
Controversial statues have been de-installed long before a racial reckoning meant the end of most Confederate statues in recent years. An 1840 marble sculpture of George Washington was removed from the U.S. Capitol rotunda because some didn’t like that he was shirtless (it sits now at the National Museum of American History)

Review: INK at Round House Theatre
by David Friscic - September 08, 2023
Cutthroat capitalism and journalistic sensationalist exploitation rears its ugly head in playwright James Graham’s Ink. This superb play is a sharply and pointedly observed tale of the rise of the infamous media mogul Rupert Murdoch (Andrew Rein) as he captures control of the newspaper The Sun and becomes the controversial sensation of Fleet Street.
