Doug Strassler is one of Flux’s oldest and most trusted reviewers, and it has been wonderful tracking his rise in stature. Currently, he’s reviewing for New York press, and he has a great review of DEINDE up –…
Our first review is out! Aaron Riccio, whose voice we missed at Menders, is back (and happily reviewing at full steam again – recent months had seen his essential site, That Sounds Cool, on a bit of a seeming slow down). I would say it is mostly positive, with the cast and design team winning…
(Photo: Justin Hoch at jhoch.com. Pictured: Jessica Angleskhan) How did we miss this? Producer Michael Roderick wrote about Jacob’s House as part of his Triple Threat Roundup on BroadwayWorld. Along with shout outs for Maeutic’s Barrier Island (aka, the show I’m going to kick myself most for missing) and (new to me) Active Theatre Company’s…

Pictured: Zack Calhoon, Anthony Wills Jr.) Doug Strassler’s review for OffOffOnline is up, and while he has reservations about the play, he recommends the production (and shouldn’t you take his advice, oh reader?)

(Photo: Justin Hoch at jhoch.com. Pictured: Jane Lincoln Taylor, Zack Calhoon, Bianca LaVerne Jones, Anthony Wills Jr.) In a recession, value counts more than ever, so the good folks over at The Happiest Medium have come up with a great idea – two reviews for the price of one! With their new feature, 4 cents,…

Pictured: Jessica Angleskhan, Zack Calhoon, Jane Lincoln Taylor) Ladies and gentlemen, the moment you’ve all been waiting for, New Hampshire’s favorite son James Comtois weighs in on Jacob’s House! And how can you top this for an opener? “Flux Theatre Ensemble’s latest production, Jacob’s House, is an Americanized retelling of…
(Photo: Justin Hoch at jhoch.com. Pictured: Jessica Angleskhan, Zack Calhoon, Isaiah Tanenbaum) Flux is very lucky: we have now developed a relationship with critics and artist-bloggers that stretches over multiple shows to create a shared body of call and response. Toby Thelin has now seen 6 Flux shows – from the 3 plays of the…

We’ve been wooing him for a long time, and as readers of this blog know, we’re big fans of all he does for our theatre community. I’m thrilled that Matthew Archambault, Zack Calhoon, Jane Taylor,…
