Thank you for your generous feedback on our productions!

  • First of all, Saint Joan was a terrific choice of plays, secondly a terrific idea to have an all-women cast, and third what a terrific cast! Everyone shined in her role and Regan Sims as Joan was magnificent. I don’t believe any of Shaw’s plays have ever made me feel emotional but this one did in the hands of these terrific actors and obviously terrific director! Brava brava bravissima to you all!
  • Iphigenia Among the Taurians was truly outstanding. Parts were very moving and the moments of humor effectively relieved the tension. The Chorus was magnificent. Well done!
  • Our Tears are the Same Color was incredible. Extremely moving, extremely well directed, well acted. My wife and I were blown away.
  • Twilight was beautiful, Regan is a powerhouse, and the one-person format was such a simple way to keep things interesting and unpredictable and show off Regan's versatility as a performer.
  • I can't say enough good things about Mary Stuart. After the show ended, there was a collective 'Wow' gasp by everyone in the seats around us. The acting is fantastic, the lyric qualities of the play are inspiring, and the singing and music is amazing.
  • Thank you for your wonderful work! To see Mary Stuart outside at night was truly very special. I look forward to many more performances.

We so appreciate your kind words about our virtual productions!

  • Great job on War of the Worlds! Loved it! Thanks for entertaining us during this time of isolation.
  • Brava!!! Scared the hell out of me. What a great production and the sound effects. Wow!
  • Sorry, Wrong Number was riveting!
  • We loved Rebecca! Thank you so much for helping us feel like we have 'date night' during the quarantine!
  • Great fun once again. What an excellent troupe you have! And I really enjoyed the introductory jazz.
  • I'm so impressed with how you did it. Hard to believe I was sitting in my backyard with my iPad because I could have sworn I was at the theatre. Only wish you could hear the applause throughout Newton. Bravo everyone and thank you!
  • Under Milkwood was a wonderful performance and everyone outdid themselves. So lyrical and poetic!
  • I was blown away. An excellent, powerful and thought-provoking play, and very timely. Your new season has started off with a bang.
  • I thought the cast did an amazing job. At times I forgot that the actors were all in different windows. The skill to act, portray emotion without being able to physically move was impressive. I look forward to your next production.
  • My husband and I loved Rebecca! Everything flowed so seamlessly, the sound effects worked so well, and the acting was amazing - you would think you had been doing online performances like this for years.
  • I was amazed how the cast conveyed their character's personality with just their faces, hands, hairstyles and a few props. It was an ambitious undertaking - theatrically and technically - and I look forward to more.
  • A big THANK YOU to the company for providing joy in crazy times! I've been so impressed by your creativity! Looking forward to your next production, and to the time we can meet in person!
  • That was pure magic! Thank you!
In the spring of our 2019-2020 season, we were forced to cancel the remainder of our in-person performances and explore alternative programming options due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This effort became our Zoom Radio Hour series, for which we produced eleven fully-realized digital performances.

The Zoom Radio Hour series was born out of a desire to connect with our community during this difficult period. We were so moved by the responses we received from patrons like you, and continued virtual productions through-out the 2020-2021 season.
