REVIEW – A Day in Holywood, A Night in the Ukraine – Palo Alto Players
Low on plot and high on shtick, Palo Alto Players’ production of A Day in Hollywood A Night in the Ukraine, is a truly peculiar, motley mix of old Hollywood tunes and vintage Marx Brothers. While maybe not the most … Continue reading
REVIEW – Clybourne Park – Palo Alto Players
Among the top of my many personal reasons for attending a theater performance is escape from reality. Certainly I like a show that’s ready to make me think or one I can relate to on a personal level, but a … Continue reading
REVIEW- The Addams Family – Palo Alto Players
Of all the love stories this planet has generated, Morticia and Gomez Addams are among the most admired and coveted. I know for a fact I am not alone in that thought. They are honest and passionate and we love … Continue reading

REVIEW – Harvey – Palo Alto Players
There are shows that endure not because they are particularly poetic or riveting or their content is anything so very unique or compelling, but because they play to your heart and they don’t tax your brain too much. Harvey is … Continue reading
REVIEW – BIG FISH – PALO ALTO PLAYERS
I am the president (self-appointed as is the norm with many of my titles) of the Whimsy Fan Club. I strongly believe in the magic of stories told largely and from deep within an infinite imagination. I embrace the fanciful, … Continue reading

REVIEW- The Farnsworth Invention – Palo Alto Players
For one so curious a creature as myself, I find it interesting and a bit sad even that I wasn’t familiar with who invented the television prior to seeing the Farnsworth Invention at Palo Alto Players. I don’t think that … Continue reading

REVIEW- Young Frankenstein – Palo Alto Players
Palo Alto Players is one of the few local theatre companies that have noticeably stepped up their game over the last couple seasons (and next season, which was just announced, is NO exception). They’re doing fresher and far more ambitious … Continue reading
REVIEW- The Heiress – Palo Alto Players
In the novel Washington Square, Henry James focuses in on the falsely generated highs and the devastating lows of an intensely introverted, awkward heiress and a sour, damaged father, harsh with his words and unable to disassociate his daughter from … Continue reading

REVIEW – God of Carnage – Palo Alto Players
Oh God of Carnage, you dark, dark, dark, dark oh so dark, dark comedy. You resonate in the most amusing but oh so uncomfortable way. You embrace all the nightmarish qualities of parents and churn them into 75 minutes of … Continue reading
REVIEW – IN THE HEIGHTS – PALO ALTO PLAYERS
I saw the Broadway Tour of In the Heights not too long about and thought it a stunning production, seriously one of the best I had ever seen, from beginning to end. It’s an ambitious show to take on that … Continue reading
