Exit the King, Ionesco

Engaging production of a very tricky play. With Geoffrey Rush, Susan Sarandan, and Lauren Ambrusco.

Recommend.

Trojan Barbie, Christine Evans

More interesting in conception than in execution. The script was rough, and something about the acting seemed tonally off kilter.

Caveats.

The Cherry Orchard, Chekhov

Mesmerizing production by Sam Mendes. (See more at notes on Winter's Tale.)

Highly recommend.

Endgame, Beckett

ART's production of Endgame is the finest I've seen. It makes Beckett's text lucid and understandable without oversimplifying it.

Highly recommend.

Cardenio, Stephen Greenblatt

Engaging reconception of a "lost" Shakespearean play.

Recommend.
