What the Critics Said

"Critic's Pick" - Backstage West

Gros and company did several things excellently well: the casting, pacing, movement, singing and staging were skillfully woven into a tight perfect whole. PCPA managed to bring out all of the vital magic and lyricism of this gorgeous play. The production as a whole was so marvelous. I came away amazed and inspired. Even if you've never seen Shakespeare before, you shouldn't miss this elegantly handled production." - Santa Barbara Independent
