City Garage Theatre

"Art is not a mirror held up to reality, but a hammer with which to shape it" – Bertolt Brecht

“eerie, atmospheric ... well suited to the stylish City Garage aesthetic”
—Philip Brandes, Los Angeles Times
“... a Greek myth scaled down to human proportions ... It’s simple, it’s quiet, it’s deeply personal”
—Anthony Byrnes, “Opening The Curtain” KCRW
“THE BOURGEOIS GENTLEMAN had the audience laughing from start to finish.”
—Ilana Lifshitz
“Superb acting….Frederique Michel’s clockwork-like direction of Schimmelpfennig’s tricky, provocative play and Charles Duncombe’s atmospheric stage design also deserve the highest praise possible.”
—Will Manus, Total Theater
“City Garage, known for daring, highly stylized sociopolitical theater, is the ideal local company to revive this infrequently done, disturbingly timely play.”
—Margaret Grey, The Los Angeles Times
Andrew Loviska
“Crowd-pleasing and consistently funny!”
—Stage Raw
Claire Pida, Bo Roberts, and Buddy Brown in Moliere’s “School For Wives”
“The piece is fascinating to watch... handsome and visually stunning production, stylized and ritualized.”
—Neal Weaver, Stage RAW
Kimshelley Lessard
“The writing and the performances crackle...”
—Paul Birchall, Stage RAW
Andrew Loviska, Johanny Paulino
Yukiko Hadena, David E. Frank, Megan Kim
“A marvelous evening of theater... a distinctive, individual form of dance-theater, using a movement vocabulary that... communicates immediately with gestures sometimes like seductive cabaret performance... ”
—Gray Palmer, Stage RAW
Lindsay Plake, Alexa Yeames
