We never can seem to catch a break from the president, and a night out at Woolly Mammoth's American premiere of Anne Washburn's SHIPWRECK is no exception.

BWW Review: FABULATION, OR, THE RE-EDUCATION OF UNDINE at Mosaic Theater
by Roger Catlin - Aug 29, 2019

At the outset of Mosaic Theatre's fifth season opener, 'Fabulation, or the Re-Education of Undine,' the biggest problem facing its central character is the lack of a celebrity for a big Manhattan benefit she's throwing.

BWW Review: THE HEIRESS at Arena Stage
by Rachael F. Goldberg - Feb 18, 2019

Perhaps the biggest problem with 'The Heiress' is that it's difficult to invest in.
