Theater Review: “Every Brilliant Thing” — Two Cheers for Solipsism

A manipulative entertainment that sets out to confuse theater and therapy.

Theater Review: “My Jane” — Not Much New Here

Theater Review: “Blink” at the Chester Theatre Company — Anything But Fleeting

Technology is the gimmick in this two-hander, but what makes Blink absorbing is the writing, teamed with excellent acting and directing.

Fuse Theater Review: A “Turn” by a Prodigiously Gifted Actress

A fascinating adaptation, well worth the trip to out-of-the-way Chester, MA, TURN OF THE SCREW is never less than interesting and often all-absorbing — especially when actress Allison McLemore lets loose.

Theater Review: Jane Austen Tweets In Chester, MA

The Chester Theatre Company’s production, directed by Ron Bashford, runs over two hours with nary a dull moment and the actors seem to be having as wonderful a time as the audience.
