Description

2011 | Best Actress

On the surface, a one-person show reenacting the movie version of the 1961 musical West Side Story in a woman's small apartment screams theatrical overkill. But in the highly talented hands, legs and voice of Terri Mowrey, this Monkey Wrench Collective production worked seamlessly. She not only did a stellar job replicating the songs and dance moves of the original, but she also managed to share insights into her struggles as a performer and growing up half-Mexican, half-Anglo in Southern...

2010 | Best Actress

It's not just that Gable, one of the most-versatile performers in the Orange County storefront-theater scene, effectively pulled off her role in Wallace Shawn's frighteningly intense one-person show. It's that she was onstage in the first place. There aren't many actors who would even consider tackling the role of a person grappling with issues both horrifyingly public and intimately private set in the context of a 90-minute monologue that slithers through some truly twisted...

Missing, She Went

By JOEL BEERS | Thu, April 21, 2011

There is an incalculable sadness to most of the characters in Phyllis Nagy's 1995 play, Disappeared. From a police detective who loathes his wife and children to the young woman at the center of the play's mystery who disappears one night after po... More »
West Side Story One Woman at a Time

By Joel Beers | Thu, March 10, 2011

At first thought, the notion of a one-woman show in which the entire musical West Side Story is re-enacted would seem suspect at best. After all, two of the most annoyingly overwrought theatri... More »
