2010 | BEST MUSICAL

The Guthrie's staging of Tony Kushner's volcanic, spiritually ambitious musical struck with explosive force, particularly the breakout performance of Greta Oglesby in the title role. It was, in a sense, a slight story revolving around change left... More >
2010 | BEST MISSISSIPPI RIVER EXPERIENCE

It's hard not to love the Guthrie for its wonderful stage productions, but it's also a hotspot for sweeping views of the Mississippi River. The cantilevered bridge jutting out toward the river offers views of St. Anthony Falls and the Stone Arch... More >
2009 | Best View

A great view is as much about the place you're sitting as it is the thing you're looking at. No place in the Twin Cities embodies that maxim more than the Endless Bridge at the Guthrie Theater. Erected when the new Guthrie went up in 2006, the... More >
2008 | BEST NEW VIEW OF THE RIVERFRONT

Sure, the new Guthrie Theater's edifice may be a bit imposing, the interior a tad too dark, and the HAL-like voice that welcomes you to the theater more than a bit unnerving, but that's forgotten once you step outside onto the theater complex's... More >

Julius Caesar

By Brad Richason | Wed, January 25, 2012

Of all the ominous rhetoric reliably uttered by armchair soothsayers, none has been repeated as frequently as the grim forewarning that the United States is doomed to a cataclysmic collapse akin to that of the Roman Empire. Admittedly, this dire p... More >
Keb Mo

By Rick Mason | Wed, January 18, 2012

Although often considered a blues revivalist, Keb Mo (a.k.a. L.A.-bred Kevin Moore) long has had wider interests, which fully emerge on The Reflection, his first release on his own label, Yolabelle. The title track is a sleek, easygoing slice of l... More >
The Edge of Our Bodies

By Brad Richason | Wed, October 26, 2011

Beginning with his literary debut, 1990's The Buffalo Tree, Adam Rapp has consistently captured the awkward posturing and restless anxieties of adolescence in a string of young-adult novels. While Rapp has since expanded his authorial range to enc... More >
The Burial at Thebes

By Ed Huycfk | Wed, October 19, 2011

Nobel Prize-winning Irish poet Seamus Heaney tackles Sophocles' Antigone in this distinct adaptation, a centerpiece in the Guthrie's fall lineup. The poet keeps the familiar setting and story but brings, if not a modern backdrop, then an awareness... More >
John Hiatt & the Combo

By Rick Mason | Wed, September 14, 2011

Ace songwriter John Hiatt has been cranking out memorable songs and great albums so consistently for so long (more than 30 years), it's almost too easy to take him for granted. But then a new set of tunes snares you with rootsy charms, combining w... More >

The first play I saw at the Guthrie Theater was F. Scott Fitzgerald�s �A Great Gatsby� and I loved it. The Guthrie is great place to see live theater and architecturally the building is a true asset to Minneapolis.
