Reviewing theater from Broadway to the Fringe since 1994
Theater Mirror Editor (and lifelong Virginia Woolf fan), Julie-Anne Whitney, sat down with playwright Lindsay Joelle and director Rebecca Bradshaw to learn about the new play, Dalloway: First Love and the upcoming world premiere production that opens at Gloucester Stage on August 15.
Lanes Coven’s production is full of fun, laughter, and heart. There’s also a deep feeling of sincerity in their choice to emphasize the characters escaping a tyrannical leader and finding comfort in the woods (just like the audience that came to see the show).
In ‘Delirium’ She and He seem to care only about themselves and, occasionally, each other. They are flawed, but they are honest with one another. The world around them is full of violence, fear, and loss so they use conflict to create connection and imagination to escape reality.
