Reviews
The New CenturyThe Journal News "Paul Rudnick just may be the funniest playwright around. A perfect little production!"
The New York Post "The evening contains so many gut-busting one-liners that those with heart conditions are advised to steer clear."
Theatermania.com "It’s not every day that a comedy writer gets a laugh on every line he intends to be thighslappingly funny, but Paul Rudnick does so with The New Century.”"
Thrill MeBY ANDREA BRAUN • thevitalvoice.com • August 11, 2011"The acting is impeccable and the direction by Brooke Edwards is sure. The actor’s body language and Edwards’ use of the (small) space lends an operatic feel." BY ANDREA TORRENCE • St. Louis Theatre Snob, August 7, 2011" The songs are eerie but alluring with accompaniment by a wonderful Henry Palkes at the piano. The costumes by Cynthia Lohrmann are perfect, and the scenic design by Will James Stacey is simple but effective and works well to accentuate John Blunk's potent lighting. " It Had To Be YouBY CHRIS GIBSON • BroadwayWorld.com, July 20, 2010"Director Sydnie Grosberg Ronga draws fine work from this cast, and keeps the action moving." BY DENNIS BROWN • Riverfront Times, July 21, 2010"…the laughs seem to flow naturally, of their own accord. The performers, Stellie Siteman and Jerry Vogel, never assault or harangue us; they are pleasant..." BY JERRY BERGER • Bergersbeat.com, July 24, 1010"One of the top stage achievements this summer has to be the production of the two-act play, “It Had to be You,” now on board at the Marvin and Harleen Wool Theater at the JCCA" BY JUDITH NEWMARK • St. Louis Post-Dispatch • July 22, 2010"These producers sniff out comedy! The latest troupe on the St. Louis theater scene, Max & Louie Productions, takes its name from a pair of newcomers..." BY MARK BRETZ • Ladue News, July 22, 2010"Christopher Waller’s messy, cluttered set fits Theda’s scatterbrained personality and is handsomely lit by Glenn Dunn’s lighting, most appealing in its late-night illumination, with sound..." BY RICHARD GREEN • TalkingBroadway.com, July 20, 2010"Ms. Siteman is a remarkable comic talent" The Lady With All The AnswersBY ANDREA TORRENCE • St. Louis Theatre Snob, May 14, 2011"Stellie Siteman really nails Ann Landers, down to that Chicago dialect" BY CONNIE BOLLINGER • KDHX, May 14, 2011"Either Stellie Siteman channeled Anne Landers or she's one of the best actresses I've ever come across." BY DENNIS BROWN • Riverfront Times, May 19 2011"Siteman eases her way through the evening with the aplomb of a veteran fly fisherman who can reel in her catch while barely moving her wrist." BY JUDITH NEWMARK • St. Louis Post-Dispatch, May 15, 2011"a charming one-woman showthat stars Stellie Siteman" BY MARK BRETZ • Ladue News, May18, 2011"makes its local debut in a stylish presentation offered by Max & Louie Productions" BY RICHARD GREEN • TalkingBroadway.com, May 17, 2011"Ill confess here and now that I truly hate to review one-person shows. But, for once, there's no fear in my mind that I may run out of amazing details to relate." |
