Review: IS HE DEAD at Olathe Civic Theatre Association
by Alan Portner - May 13, 2023
Anything with the name Mark Twain on it draws a crowd. “Twainiacs” like me will always show up. This particular piece of Clemens’ literary output languished inside a file cabinet at the Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley for a century. It is difficult to know what to say about IS HE DEAD. It is a bold choice by Director Charlotte Gilman and the OCTA Board. Gilman has chosen to direct IS HE DEAD in the imagined style of the time. It is easy to imagine in a touring Chautauqua tent show in rural Kansas or Missouri at the end of the nineteenth century.

BWW Review: Mark Twain's IS HE DEAD? at GCT
by Don Grigware - Oct 16, 2017
Is He Dead?/by Mark Twain/adapted by David Ives/Glendale Center Theatre (GCT)/directed by Todd Nielsen/through November 18 GCT loves doing seasonal shows. Since it's only weeks away from Halloween, what could be more fun than a melodramatic and satirical romp that focuses on a nasty villain and a man in a dress? Mark Twain wrote Is He Dead? in 1898 but the incredible fact is it wasn't published until 2003. Adapted by David Ives it received a production on Broadway in 2007 starring Norbert Leo Butz.

BWW Reviews: IS HE DEAD? is Alive and Kicking at Francis Wilson Playhouse
by Jimmy Ferraro - Apr 6, 2013
The focus is on the men in this piece and the talents of the male actors in this company, were brought to comedic height by Director Murray Mintz. Mr. Mintz's staging, slapstick comedic bits, sight gags, and yes, choreography and recorded music too, added exactly what this play needs to be a hit!

BWW Reviews: IS HE DEAD? From Theater Schmeater is Funny But Misses Opportunities
by Jay Irwin - Sep 16, 2012
Mark Twain's play "Is He Dead?", adapted by David Ives, is an uproarious hysterical romp. Or it can be. Unfortunately the current production from Theater Schmeater, while still funny, lacks a cohesiveness that could take it to the realm of "seriously funny".
