  • “The Best Live Theater to Stream Online”

    —TimeOut.com

  • “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
