Featherstone Reviews
Chicago Reader- Somewhat Recommended
"...This Viable Theater Company production employs two different casts (the understudies take their turn on Sundays), but it's difficult to imagine anything topping Truman's Featherstone. Yet with so much strong material given to the title character, the issues between his patients, ball-busting Jayne Krazen (Adrienne Gunn on the night I attended) and shrinking violet Thomas Philpott (Steve Carter Ruppel), feel like an afterthought, lacking enough spark or character development to compete."
Theatre By Numbers- Somewhat Recommended
"...this production hinges on how much you enjoy Truman in all of his forms (excepting Sunday performances when a cast of understudies take the stage). As a writer he has bite and a solid arc, as a performer he gnaws contentedly on the drywall, and as a director he steps back, showcasing a solid script and performers. There’s value in having extra eyes on your project, however, and that’s evident as “Featherstone” unfolds. Little indulgences like dance interludes and wink-nudge nods to the audience may have garnered some rehearsal chuckles but could now stand to face the editors’ red pen."
