| Henry V [2010] |
'The versatility of this group of actors, the simplicity of the set design, the contemporary and antique costumes all help create the time of Henry V. It is a fabulous production with a stellar cast. It is marvelous to have such a theatre troupe on San Juan Island.' RO 'I had assumed it was some kind of historical exercise about events which I don’t remember much about (I mean from high school history, okay?!) and that it would be, for me, kind of a yawner. I was wrong, wrong, wrong. It was stirring, hilarious and thought provoking….. really like watching magic.' Brenda B 'Thank you, thank you for the fabulous, but chilly night of historical theater. You really are the BEST director around. Stage Left really is the BEST theater around. Lucky, lucky us in San Juan County!' AK 'Fantastic!!! guests @ the B&B went Saturday night and raved about it to everyone at breakfast the next morning!' NZ 'Congratulations on the wonderful production of Henry V!!' TM 'My favorite staging in ten years!' JN 'Please pass the word – it is brilliant! The production is poignant, funny, and romantic.And when the cast sings “Non nobis domine” you will be moved to tears. The issues the play addresses are just as important today as they were five centuries ago: leadership, justification for war, love, moral codes, the nation versus the individual etc. 'There was so much energy and precision. Really right on. It was so clean and clear and everybody was really good. Wow. We really enjoyed it and the audience was thoroughly engaged and into it. Wonderful.' SW 'A stellar and fun performance with Henry V. So happy to have seen you perform on Shaw!' WB
