WINTERS TALE GETTING RAVES!
The Winter's Tale has gotten a rave review from the Arizona Republic.
Kerry Lengel of the Arizona Republic just wrote this about our current production:
"With its lethal jealousies, secret identities and miraculous reversals,
The Winter's Tale is Shakespeare as soap opera, and over the top is exactly
where it needs to be taken.......it's hard to imagine this difficult play being
performed much better."
And....."Richard Baird....prowls the stage like an angry cat....he
is a gifted actor with undeniable presence." "The high drama and lowbrow
comedy are richly realized in this production."
He also raved about the performances, including: "Andi Watson gives a standout performance....the fearless noblewoman who speaks truth to power.....Jason Barth's athletic efforts pay off in big laughs as the rogue Autolycus." and on, and on.... You can read the whole review for yourself here:

Hurry, though, to get your tickets to this rare treat. The Winter's Tale is rarely performed, especially in Arizona, and you will not see a better production of this, one of the last, of Shakespeare's plays. Many of the performances are already SOLD OUT!!!
