2011 | Best New Play

Though playwright Gina Gionfriddo wrote it in 2008 and productions had been mounted on the East Coast, Becky Shaw was new to Southern Californian eyes and ears when South Coast Repertory staged it in October and November 2010. It was a... More >
2011 | Best Theatrical Ensemble

A play about beginning acting students taking a course taught in a small Vermont town by a former hippie would seem to fall into the kind of self-congratulatory martyrdom that many plays about theater slip into. But not this Annie Baker-penned... More >
2010 | Best New Play

Though she has been on the radar of the kind of people who keep track of these things for several years—she's had productions at major theaters such as NYC's Public Theater and Playwrights Horizons, as well as South Coast Repertory in 2007 with... More >
2010 | Best Actor

Primarily a film and TV actor—he is the teacher in Election who delivers the unforgettable line about a high-school beauty queen, "Her pussy gets so wet"—and quite a busy one at that, Harelik only appears in about one play per year. But he has... More >
2009 | Best Actress

Another ensemble effort, and another example of one cast member shining so brightly she nearly eclipsed the rest of the cast. Many an actress salivates over the chance to play Noises Off's blond, myopic, dumb-as-a-post bombshell. Jennifer Lyon... More >

OC Weekly Reviews and News

'Topdog/Underdog' Is Black Like Us

By JOEL BEERS | Thu, January 26, 2012

Considering fewer than three out of every 100 Orange Countians refer to themselves as African-American, according to the 2010 U.S. Census, it's unlikely you'll see many black faces in your typical OC theater audience. But there's one place they're... More >
Topdog/Underdog

By AMANDA PARSONS | Thu, January 05, 2012

Sibling rivalry can be intense (just look at Cain and Abel) and in Suzan-Lori Parks’ 2002 Pulitzer-winning dramatic play, this literary theme is explored (minus the murder) through brothers Lincoln and Booth (names given to them by a cruel parent)... More >
The 12 OC Plays to Watch in 2012

By JOEL BEERS | Thu, January 05, 2012

If the Mayan long-form calendar is right (and, obviously, any civilization that hit its peak 1,000 years ago was right about everything . . .) the world ends Dec. 21. Good thing we've got sexualized puppets, Orson Welles, Richard M. Nixon, a homoe... More >
A Christmas Carol

By ERIN DEWITT | Thu, December 22, 2011

Actor Hal Landon Jr. is the very embodiment of Dickens' anti-hero Ebenezer Scrooge—tall, lanky, and able to cough out "Bah Humbug" as natural as clearing his throat. Back for its 31st year, A Christmas Carol returns to South Coast Repertory, a spe... More >
Jingle Bells, Batman Smells

By ERIN DEWITT | Thu, November 03, 2011

Well, it's the first week of November so it's time to start peddling Christmas events—wonder how long it's going to take before people start calling Thanksgiving "Pre-Christmas." This week marks the beginning of the holiday season and with that, O... More >
