The Memory of Water's plot and problems are never quite real...or original

By Juliet Wittman | Thu, May 16, 2013

The power of mothers — for good and ill — is a theater trope that never quite loses its potency. In Shelagh Stephenson's The Memory of Water, three daughters convene for the funeral of their mother, Vi, who has, in different ways, ruined all... More »

The Pitmen Painters isn't as passionate as its characters

By Juliet Wittman | Thu, March 21, 2013

Based on historical events, The Pitmen Painters tells the story of a group of miners in a small town near Northumberland who sign up for an art-appreciation class taught by art historian Robert Lyon. When the men show no interest in his slides,... More »
Greetings! ushers in a new era at Miners Alley

By Juliet Wittman | Thu, November 22, 2012

There are big changes afoot at Miners Alley, the small, bright and hospitable theater established by Rick Bernstein almost a decade ago in Golden after running a Morrison company he'd founded in 1989. But after close to 25 years in the business,... More »
Without a specific target, The Threepenny Opera is raggedy and uncertain

By Juliet Wittman | Thu, September 13, 2012

Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill's The Threepenny Opera, based on John Gay's satiric eighteenth-century piece, The Beggar's Opera, burst onto the Berlin scene in 1928. Revolutionary for its time both in content and form, it rocked the art world, and... More »

A young couple's relationship is tested in the touching Sweet Storm

By Juliet Wittman | Thu, June 28, 2012

The setting is a functional living space, bare-bones but lovingly furnished with pots of gardenias. There's a large bed in the center. We hear voices — some laughter, a woman complaining, a man soothing, explaining — and a couple emerges through... More »

2012 | Best Diva

When you're doing a show about Maria Callas giving a master class, it helps if there's a genuine diva around to play the role, and for this Miners Alley Playhouse production of Master Class, director Robert Kramer scored a coup when he cast local mezzo-soprano Marcia Ragonetti -- even though she didn't get to sing very much. But watching Ragonetti explain technique for the very talented performers who did sing, you understood that she knew exactly what she was talking about. And when... More »
2012 | Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy

A Touch of Spring is a romantic comedy of a fairly familiar kind -- an American couple in Rome, a mild mystery needing to be solved, a charming young girl who rocks the stodgy American man's world -- and the most original thing about it is the character of Baldo. Especially in the Miners Alley Playhouse production. Playing the elfin, charming, smart and ambiguously sexed Baldassare Pantaleone, or Baldo, Michael Bouchard scampered off with the evening. His performance was filled... More »
2012 | Best Actress in a Comedy

Rhonda Brown has a terrific warmth and vitality on stage, and these qualities were evident in her portrayal of Linda in the Miners Alley Playhouse production of Fiction, Steven Dietz's tricky Rubik's Cube of a play. Linda, a writer and prickly intellectual, has been diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor and has asked her husband -- also a writer -- to read her journal after her death. In return, she wants to read his -- before her death, naturally. What follows is an entertaining... More »
2011 | Best Ensemble

There are only three characters in Art, a play about a man who buys an all-white painting at an astronomical price and the two friends whose loyalties are severely tested by the extravagant and pretentious act. Under the meticulous direction of Richard Pegg, three superb actors -- Josh Hartwell, Jim Hunt, Chris Kendall -- in this Miners Alley production made every moment and motivation clean and clear, and the currents running through all of their interactions were deep and...
