Theater Review: “Shakespeare in Love” — Lightweight Bard

SpeakEasy Stage Company’s production of Shakespeare in Love comes off as lovely, temperate, and at least a little trite.

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: David Greenham, Scott Edmiston, Shakespeare in Love, SpeakEasy Stage Company, SpeakEasyStageCompany

Theater Review: A Romantic Yet Unnerving “Constellations”

Underground Railway Theater’s production of this touching and articulate play is perfectly lovely.

Theater Review: The Lyric Stage Company is not “Afraid of Virginia Woolf”

Edward Albee’s bitter masterwork is a tough nut for a company to crack as well as a hard play to watch.

Theater Review: A ‘Loverly’ “My Fair Lady” From the Lyric Stage

Simplicity is the key to director Scott Edmiston’s passionate vision for this musical.

Fuse Theater Review: “Other Desert Cities” — Bridging the Great Cultural Divide?

For all of its earnest interest in healing some of the great divides in American life, Other Desert Cities ends up slighting the desert spaces that lie between us.

By: Bill Marx Filed Under: Featured, Theater Tagged: Jon Robin Baitz, Other Desert Cities, Scott Edmiston, SpeakEasy Stage Company

Theater Feature: Creating the Soundscape for “Long Day’s Journey Into Night”

Supplementing Eugene O’Neill’s high drama is a subtle score of music and sound created by Dewey Dellay, an Elliot Norton Award winner for Outstanding Design.

By: Tim Jackson Filed Under: Featured, Music, Theater Tagged: Eugene O'Neill, Karen MacDonald, Long Day's Journey into Night, New Repertory Theatre, Scott Edmiston, Will Lyman

Theater Review: “Time Stands Still” — A Too Distant Echo of the War in Iraq

When young photographers went up to the famous war photographer, Robert Capa, and asked him what they could do to make their pictures more gripping, he said: “Go closer!”

By: Peter-Adrian Cohen Filed Under: Featured, Theater Tagged: Barlow Adamson, Donald Margulies, Erica Spyres, Iraqi War, Jeremiah Kissel, Laura Latreille, Lyric stage company of boston, Scott Edmiston, Time Stands Still

Theater Review: An Unimpressive “Next Fall”

“Next Fall” is so anxious not to polarize or offend that it ends up as little more than well meaning. Something serious seems to be happening on stage, but for all intents and purposes the conflicts that make for genuine drama fall by the wayside.

By: Bill Marx Filed Under: Review, Theater Tagged: Geoffrey Nauffts, Next Fall, Scott Edmiston, SpeakEasy Stage Company, Will McGarrahan
