REVIEWS
**** Pick of the Week! LA Weekly "DON’T MISS THIS IF YOU CARE ABOUT SHAKESPEARE (OR EVEN IF YOU DON’T!)" ----------------------------------------------- **** Critics Choice! Back Stage West/Drama-Logue Only the dopes will stay away from this one!" "Thoughtful, vividly theatrical, visceral and emotionally moving. It is also splendidly entertaining!!” "It is good to report that actor Jack Stehlin has wrestled Excalibur from the stone and so earns the right to stand with the great ones. Like them, as he must be, Stehlin is his own Hamlet. He is also, faithfully, Shakespeare's Hamlet." ----------------------------------------------- "Ripping Good! Be There!" Los Angeles Times ----------------------------------------------- “Stehlin is one of our very best actors, unpredictable, dangerous, brimming with energy. He’s an electrified presence on the stage, and his portrayal gives us a fresh look at the not-so-melancholy Dane!! New Times LA |
