Re: “Trouble in Mind”
This article says so much more about its author than anything else! She is delusional in thinking SHE knows the REAL John Nash! She read a biased biography and is now the voice of "truth" in her own mind. The only truly obvious thing here is that for some reason, probably personal, the author is unforgiving about child or family abandonment. Okay, but that has NOTHING to do with who the real John Nash was or is! This piece would be well titled if it were called "The Writings Of An Idiot."
Re: “Quirks of Comedy”
The run of this "Taming of the Shrew" is over now, but your reviewer missed an important aspect of this particular "directorial interpretation". The role of Kate and Bianca's father, Baptista, was transformed into a MOTHER. I felt that this drastically shifted the sexual balance of the performance, plus adding a subtle suggestion of how Kate could have 'inherited' her shrewishness. And Claire Buchignani really stole the show as this female Baptista.

Re: “Creating Opportunity”
I have to agree with Ogle about the writing of this article... However, the exhibit itself was really amazing. Encaustic work seems to be growing in popularity recently. There is an excellent exhibit of encaustics at the Art Center Design College's Florence Quater Gallery right now (which I think runs through March)...
Re: “Creating Opportunity”
I recently had a chance to visit the exhibit at the Kachina Gallery, and the work displayed there was extraordinarily beautiful. Walking through the door I was particularly impressed with the first painting I saw by Dlyn Parra, what a beautiful first impression of the exhibit! Kudos to all the artists and the people who have worked so hard to display their work so gallantly!
Re: “Creating Opportunity”
i guess when i say pretentious writing style - you use VOCABULARIFIC words like fecundity, and say many different words with the same meaning to sound... poetic? informed?
go you!
Re: “Creating Opportunity”
exhibit is beautiful, pretentious writing style of the article.... is pretty lame. diane's paintings are great... but when described as "an orgy of fecundity, twisting and tangling and intertwining." WTF pretentious!!!

Re: “Comedy Duo”
Nice calf!
This is some serious lazy writing. We can read the synopsis of these shows online. A paragraph to talk about the actual productions is pathetic! Do you job people!
Re: “Golden Steps”
I am looking forward in being able to attend the upcoming performance, due to a busy schedule. Barbea is a great influence to the community and a great teacher. It is a wonderful experience to see the students dance/ enjoy / perform and watch them blossom into wonderful dancers.

Re: “Accolades and Shortcomings”
I have to disagree with the prior comment. I saw the Studio Connections production on closing day, and although I disagree with the critic's opinion of the play itself being flawed, I feel he was extraordinarily KIND and GENEROUS to this production. She didn't even mention the fact that the play was about ten to fifteen minutes short of four almost painful hours long which would have kept many theatre-goers away from attending a play that I think we can all agree SHOULD be seen. Taking all of this into consideration I would say that Nathan's review was fair almost to a fault and shouldn't be disregarded simply because someone disagrees with it.
Re: “Accolades and Shortcomings”
This review seems to be more an opportunity for the critic to voice his pent-up dislike of an award winning play, rather than an unbiased assessment of Studio Connection's production.
