Berko review: THE CHASTE GENIUS AND HIS DEATHRAY GUN @ convergence-continuum
by Roy Berko 09 Dec '17

09 Dec '17

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule Judgement: Though it’s more history lecture than theatrical production, “The Chaste Genius and his Death Ray Gun,” teaches an important lesson about the need for eccentric, out of the box thinkers, who need encouragement and the financial means to create theories, inventions and formulas that can have the capacity to change the world. It’s worth the long, sometimes lifeless sit, to gain that understanding.* *To read the entire review go to: **www.royberko.info* <http://www.royberko.info>* to read the capsule judgments of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: **www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com* <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com> <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com> *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*
