Theater Review: “The Haunted Life”– The Lyricism of Jack Kerouac’s Formative Years

It’s Shakespeare in Lowell –the stage piled with ghostly corpses, the heroes all dead, the young bard in mourning.

By: Jay Atkinson Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: Jack Kerouac, Merrimack Repertory Theatre, Sean Daniels, The Haunted Life

Theater Review: “The Heath” — Shakespearean Resonances

It’s impossible not to be moved by Lauren Gunderson’s elegant, understated writing.

Theater Review: “Slow Food” — Could Use More Meat on its Bones

Qualms aside, Slow Food is an enjoyable show that taps into the uncertainties of middle-aged parents who must confront a strange, new life without the kids.

Theater Review: “Villains’ Supper Club” — The Adventures of a Supermom

The Villains’ Supper Club supplies an engaging and funny twist on the superhero mythos, plus a smart, refreshing look at the tribulations of working mothers.

Theater Review: A Soaring “Silent Sky” at MRT

I found myself almost wishing the dramatist had written a longer play (a rare desire coming from a theater critic).

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: Erik Nikander, Laura Gunderson, Merrimack Repertory Theatre, Sean Daniels, Silent Sky

Theater Review: “Women in Jeopardy!” — Critic Left Unconcerned

The MRT production marches clumsily along the fine line of being funny and knowing it is funny.

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: David Greenham, Merrimack Repertory Theatre, Sean Daniels, Wendy MacLeod, Women in Jeopardy!

Theater Review: “The Making of a Great Moment” — Not So Much

The Making of a Great Moment comes off as flawed entertainment

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: Erik Nikander, Merrimack Repertory Theatre, Peter Sinn Nachtrieb, Sean Daniels, The Making of a Great Moment

Theater Review: “I and You”—Sounding a “Barbaric Yawp”

This gem of a play that is guaranteed to make you gasp at its surprising conclusion and leave the theater reveling in its lush language and the outstanding performances.

By: Glenn Rifkin Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: I and You, Lauren Gunderson, Leaves of Grass, Merrimack Repertory Theatre, Sean Daniels, Walt Whitman
