"You've got to love art that questions the reason for its own existence in a world that's falling apart."
Local critics Mark Lowry and Punch Shaw include THE NETHER and BOOTY CANDY on their list of Top 5 Tarrant County productions in 2016!
"Murder for Two, a not-so-usual murder mystery musical comedy at Stage West Theatre in Fort Worth through Dec. 18 asks a lot of its actors..."
"At Stage West, Murder for Two is skillfully performed by two actors, one playing multiple roles, and both playing piano."
"Those who loved the A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder should find Murder for Two at Stage West just their cup of funny, poisoned tea."
"We thought we’d never chuckle at politics again, and then Ann (The Ann Richards Play) landed at Stage West Theatre –– our sides splintered with laughter."
"Dorothy Ann Willis Richards’ had a personality about the size of the state she governed. Serving as Texas’ leading Democrat from 1991-95, Richards’ lasting legacy feels like a breath of fresh air on the hot and humid political landscape that now overwhelms the state. Her silver-tongued banter and political optimism made her a foot soldier for feminist and liberals nationwide."
"In less sure hands, it could be a mimic performance, but Leonard imbues it with herself while exuding the no-nonsense ballsiness of Richards. This woman understood the importance of shaking up the system; wanted to open government to every race, creed, religion, gender and sexual orientation; and even after serving as governor of a large state for one term, said that teaching was the hardest job she’d ever done."
