A Midwinter's Tale celebrates the acting profession with all its passion, humor, drama and naivete. Meet Joe Harper, an out-of-work actor who attempts to salvage his pride and save his hometown church by mounting a low-budget production of Hamlet. His auditions summon a most unpromising selection of misfits and has-beens, from which he hires a cast of six to play the twenty-four roles in Shakespeare's greatest play. And have it ready in three weeks. Just in time for... Christmas? Adapted for the stage by Johnny Blaze Leavitt, based on the original screenplay by Kenneth Branagh. Directed by Jeff Love.

Signs of Life
When a musical has as its setting a concentration camp, singing and dancing don't immediately pop into one's head.

Clybourne Park
Bruce Norris' ingenious Clybourne Park sharply stings and then bites while it dances around the tenuous civilities practiced in race relations.

Hostage Song
"Taking a hostage situation in a nameless war-torn country and turning it into an indie-rock musical, Clay McLeod Chapman's ferocious talent seems to know no boundaries."

Venus in Fur
"The fun begins with a crash of thunder, a flash of lightning and the sudden appearance of John Lee Beatty’s set for Venus in Fur at the Classic Stage Company. Adapted by David Ives from Leopold von Sacher-Masoch’s 1870 "Venus in Furs", we are privy to an S and M duet and all that that implies."

Ages of the Moon
"You know Sam Shepard is feeling his age while you watch his play, Ages of the Moon, where two men in their 60's face their upcoming infirmities just around the corner with death not far behind that."

Ernest in Love
"It's almost redundant to make a musical out of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Ernest, but the score of just such a musical entitled Ernest in Love by Anne Croswell (book and lyrics) and Lee Pockriss (music) is charming enough with a nod to Gilbert and Sullivan and with enough of the original play intact that the experience is an enjoyable one."

Zero Hour
"In the bio-play, Zero Hour, Jim Brochu captures the man’s zest for living and his painful anger at things unjust and baffling as well as conveying Mostel’s signature quirks."
