BWW Review: YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU at UD REP Ensemble

UD Rep Ensemble by and large stages classics: Shakespeare, Moliere, Bernard Shaw, Tennessee Williams, etc. Plays become classics due to their timeless quality and universal truths; truths that lived, for example, in Shakespeare's time as they do today.

BWW Review: Pointer-Counterpoint �" City Opera's CANDIDE vs. Prototype's BREAKING THE WAVES
