When this one came across the My Theatre desk, I snapped it up based solely on the fact that I saw Argos Productions‘ Wandaleria last year, and was incredibly impressed by their work. I have to say, I was surprised by The Seabirds. After the first few minutes, I was expecting a pleasant, if slightly hokey, piece of Americana […]
Being no stranger to Flat Earth productions, I was ecstatic to kick off my new year with one of theirs. Never much being one for Absurdist theater, nor having a particularly deeps knowledge of Czech playwrights, I went in to The Memorandum completely blind, and suffice to say I was blown away by what I saw. Richly presented […]
So, we here at My Theater have been to a few Happy Medium Productions at this point. Personally, this is my first introduction to their work, and I have mixed feelings. The Revenants is a surprisingly witty, often very funny show about two couples during the Zombie Apocalypse forced to decide at which point their […]
In the spirit of full disclosure, I have to admit that when I was first approached about the opportunity to see Pirate Lives! The Musical! (by David Marino and Stephen Gilbane, directed by Marino and musically directed by Gilbane), I was slightly apprehensive. I’d never heard of the works that served as the inspiration for […]

About a week ago, I had the good fortune of seeing the Actors’ Shakespeare Project’s Medea during a preview. I wanted to write my review up as soon as I got home, but it’s taken me about a week to figure out exactly what it was I wanted to say about it. The problem is, […]
Argos Productions‘ second excursion in Boston theater, Wandaleria, written by David Valdes Greenwood and directed by Brett Marks, was an exceptional presentation of a wonderfully written, funny play. The script itself is new. The Author, a former Boston Globe columnist and accomplished playwright, creates a piece that is not only exceedingly clever, but well structured. The story moves […]
or Sir John Falstaff, pt. 3 Let me start off by saying this: I have nothing to say about the text of this play. I refuse to get involved in that. I could probably spend this entire article writing about how little I actually like Merry Wives, or how disappointed I am in William for […]
