BWW Review: TEMPEST REDUX Visually Stuns
TEMPEST REDUX's certainly an welcomed addition to John Farmanesh-Bocca's resume of his visceral, modern re-workings of Shakespeare classics. Farmanesh-Bocca's trademark physicality shines in the inspired pairing of Dash Pepin and Willem Long, both portraying Prospero's slave Caliban in tandem. Their heightened primal antics, acrobatic lifts, frog-leaping and finishing each other's sentences command the stage.

BWW Reviews: CLASS is Class At the Falcon Theatre
Charles Evered's West Coast premiere Class is a lovely piece of theatre currently onstage at the Falcon Theatre through April 19. It's always great to see a good script be given a laudatory production with fluid staging by director Dimitri Toscas, two sensitive performances from Gildart Jackson and Callie Schuttera, and a superior set design from Francois-Pierre Couture. It's a flawless experience that makes you realize just how much value theatre has in our lives.
Falcon Theatre to Present CLASS
Falcon Theatre is proud to present the west coast premiere of Class, written by Charles Evered and directed by Dimitri Toscas. Class is the final production of the Falcon Theatre's 2014-2015 Subscription Season.
