Michael Landman-Karny Huntington Beach, CAThis is a wonderful pla ywith an absolutely superb cast and production values. Truly a production that would make any theatre in London or NY proud. February 16, 2008
Annaliese Los Angeles, CAIt's an incredible play. The cast, the script, the set, every detail is lovingly attended to to form a well-rounded, utterly satisfying production. Go see it, tell your friends to see it, pay for strangers to see it. It's THAT good. February 11, 2008
mary redmond venice, CAI saw poor beast in the rain on Saturday night. It made me cry. I could especially relate to the subtext of loss. Having left Ireland for London myself in 1976 in scandalous circumstances, leaving behind those I loved, the play made me homsick for Wexford. In fact as soon as my back improves I'm coming home to set the record straight. Thanks! Great job all... Write a review | Read more reviews Current, Upcoming

May. 16 - Jun. 29 Inspired by actual events, this drama opens in 1955 in Boise, Idaho, where the arrests of three men for "lewd and lascivious conduct" set off a witch hunt to purge the city of all suspected homosexuals. |
