Two Characters in Search of Anagnorisis: DF Reviews for Parterre Box

This superb production of a Tennessee Williams’ rarity illuminates by lightening the playwright’s life and work.

I’ve long held that Philly’s best actors are as good as those anywhere, and you’ll see that here.

Politics and culture here are ultimately filler, suggesting but not delivering dramatic weight.

Don’t miss this superb show, which returns for a run this December!

For better and worse, Lantern Theater’s production charms rather than alienates us.

We’ve moved on from Harold Pinter’s pregnant, tedious pauses. Who has the time?

Anthony Lawton’s adaptation takes a familiar tale and electrifyingly gives it new life.

Tom Stoppard hurls his cleverness like a javelin. But wouldn’t a truly smart play be about things that matter?

Less here would be so much more.

Sometimes the play at Lantern Theater seems like a great and important work; at other times, not so much.
