Review: SNOW MAIDEN Brings Magic to Life at Synetic Theater
Synetic Theater’s holiday production, Snow Maiden, delivers a dose of whimsy to the local theater scene this December.

Review: DRACULA at Synetic Theatre
What did our critic think of DRACULA at Synetic Theatre? Synetic Theatre's signature style of silent, motion filled acting lends itself well to this adaptation of Bram Stoker's 1897 novel of the same name. Dracula is the tale of a wounded warrior granted eternal life as a vampire during the Turkish Invasion. Four hundred years later, upon the arrival of John, an English solicitor to Dracula's secluded Transylvanian lair, the adventure begins. True to its name this show is spooky and sensual with a tinge of a rock n' roll.
