“A complex, majestic triumph.”

- Charlie Mcmeekin, THE HERALD OF RANDOLPH

“Brown-Fried has created a spectacular staging, including times that are genuinely unnerving, but nothing deflects or detracts from the power of Shakespeare’s words. This is powerful theater.”

- Jim Lowe, THE RUTLAND HERALD

“This company's exchanges blaze with emotional clarity and dramatic surprise.”

- Alex Brown, SEVEN DAYS

"Shakespeare’s “King Lear” is one of the icons of English theater. But rather than placing it on a pedestal, Northern Stage’s production, which opened Saturday at the Barrette Center for the Arts, not only plumbed its literary and emotional depths, it proved downright exciting – and even scary."

- Jim Lowe, THE RUTLAND HERALD

“This production gives weight to the political struggle, including the violence when an old order gives way to youth. But the essence of the play is loss and the flicker of understanding that follows it. This superb production kindles that flame in a windswept world.”

- Alex Brown, SEVEN DAYS
