Squidsbury at Truepenny Projects

Reviews July 20, 2022 Amanda N. Gunther

Is human life too demanding? Too structured? Try squid life! It’s great. All tentacles and rage-temper-tantrums as you bust out of your human-skin-suit to show your true pink, squishy, sucker-covered colors. Sound appealing? Or at least piquing to your interests? Then Squidsbury at Truepenny Projects is for you! Making its world premiere as a full-length, staged production, this quirky play, penned by playwright Chad Short, is as endearing as it is darkly mysterious,

Reviews June 3, 2016 Amanda N. Gunther

Nothing is ever easy when journeys are involved. Dare you take a journey most chimerical? Most fantastical? Up-worlders beware, darkness is happening: fantastical, phenomenal, hypnotizing darkness that crackles with the electrifying magic of #LondonBelow at Cohesion Theatre Company as they draw their second season to a close with the Baltimore premiere of Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere.

Review: Force Continuum at Cohesion Theatre Company

Reviews April 25, 2016 Amanda N. Gunther

Black lives matter. Blue lives matter. All lives matter. Can you address the nature of all human life being important without being effusive to one group or another or erasing the suffering that they’re experiencing when it comes to social injustice in the world where we currently live? Cohesion Theatre Company presents the penultimate production of their second season, Force Continuum by Kia Corthron, as a social examination to the current political climate— not only in Baltimore— but across the nation when it comes to dealing with the controversial topic of racial inequality and how it is placed in the system of law and order.

Reviews January 8, 2016 Amanda N. Gunther

For such as we are made of, such we be! Cohesion Theatre Company is cutting right to the core of Shakespeare’s words in their co-production of Twelfth Night alongside Iron Crow Theatre. Appearing as the second staged production in the Trans* Voices Workshop Series, Twelfth Night— Directed by Phil Vannoorbeeck and Assistant Directed by Sarah Maher— is shaking up the gender dynamics of the production to show one hugely important detail of existence as we know it: everyone wants to live their life authentically.

Review: 13 Dead Husbands at Cohesion Theatre Company

Reviews March 13, 2015 Amanda N. Gunther

It’s a little too fantastical to be true. A theatre company that sprouts up overnight on the side of Charm City where there’s no theatre, and then proceeds to do incredible work like the regional premier of 13 Dead Husbands. But it is true at Cohesion Theatre Company where they are launching the Tom Horan absurdist fairytale. Meet Deedee, the world’s most beautiful woman, and her 12 dead husbands,

Review: A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Chesapeake Shakespeare Company

Reviews September 27, 2014 Amanda N. Gunther

You’re innocent when you dream. And if we are such stuff that dreams are made on than perhaps are all but mere innocent mortals; pawns in the great scheme of a Fairy’s game. The inaugural production of Chesapeake Shakespeare Company’s first season in their new home in Baltimore City kicks off with a dreamy bang. A visual delight, an aural treat, an experience to savor; A Midsummer Night’s Dream, now directed by company Artistic Director Ian Gallanar,
