The Characters in “Blood Wedding” at Lookingglass Theatre behaved in Inexplicable Ways
*** Recommended *** I don’t know what I was expecting when I went to see “Blood Wedding” at Lookingglass Theatre.

I…

Theater Wit’s “The New Sincerity” was disappointing
*** Recommended *** I was kind of disappointed with “The New Sincerity”. Although the cast did a good job, I thought the story took itself way too seriously. I couldn’t relate to the selfish, shallow and rather smug characters, probably because I don’t have anything in common with them. There were some funny bits to…

“Trip the Light Fantastic: The Making of SuperStrip”
