Reviews & Press
The Spanish Tragedy
"...a giddy, blood-soaked amusement park of a story
that careens wildly from dark humor to romance to one outrageous
killing after the next." - TC Daily Planet
"...a fascinating slice
of dramatic history..." - Pioneer Press
"...still resonates today." - Lavender Magazine
Pioneer Press - The Spanish Tragedy is named "Best
Bet"
Star Tribune - The Spanish Tragedy
Highlight

Minnesota Monthly - The Spanish Tragedy
Mention
MPR - Clarence Wethern discusses memorizing
lines and The Spanish Tragedy
"As we end Women's History Month catch woman director
Carin Bratlie's crisp staging of The Spanish Tragedy by
Thomas Kyd. It matches Elizabethan language with emotion. Clarence
Wethern crackles as the villainous Lorenzo. He's a cross between
Carl Rove and Rahm Emmanuel. And fine performances by Erik Hoover
and Ariana Prusak as spirit characters. This violent production
benefits from cross gender casting." -John Townsend
on KFAI's Fresh Fruit, March 25, 2010.
