(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbaum. Pictured: Lori E. Parquet, Chris Wight) Aaron Riccio’s review over at That Sounds Cool is out! Aaron’s review are always helpfully specific – he’s willing to take the time to lift the hood and prowl around in the engine of the play. He has some interesting thoughts about the structure of the…
(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbaum. Pictured:Zack Robidas, Becky Byers, Julian Stetkevych) In a way, I completely understand where Claudia La Rocco is coming from (oh, her review in The New York Times is out).

(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbaum. Pictured: Lori E. Parquet, Becky Byers) Wendy Caster’s review is up at Show Showdown, and it is a moving one, especially as I read it next to the image of Patrick Lee.

(Photo: Isaiah Tanenabum. Pictured: Liz Douglas, Becky Byers) Our first review is out! Not a moment too soon, as our all-too-short run is nearing its midway point at frightening speed. Joshua Bambino’s positive review on Theatre Is Easy is a great read, and he asks some interesting questions about the balance of naturalism and heightened…
(Photo: Isaiah Tanenbaum. Pictured: Lori E. Parquet, Chris Wight) This is an open thread for our community of artists and audience to respond to Dog Act. We have tried this for both The Lesser Seductions of History and Jacob’s House, and the comments were very insightful. When you see the show, please take a moment…

Dog Act opens tonight to a sold our house! After a great rehearsal period and (ongoing) intense tech week, we’re thrilled to share this play with you. First things first: if you haven’t already purchased your tickets, you can do so here, and use the code “FUGHAT” for $14 tickets for shows on the 6th,…
