Berko review: THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE OB IN THE NIGHT-TIME
by Roy Berko 03 Oct '22

03 Oct '22

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule judgment: THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME is a brilliantly written play. The Beck production catches most of the script’s effectiveness, but stumbles on some technical and directing decisions. Even with those issues, this is a production well-worth seeing. * *To read the entire review go to: *https://royberkinfo.blogspot.com/ *To read the capsule judgements of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: * *www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com* <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com/> *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*

It’s all a close-up.Tricks are clearly revealed. 2. You get a full playback of everything you did in every class. You canfollow your own progress. 3. We work on camera technique. TESTIMONIALS: “Bill’suncanny genius is knowing how the actor and the play can work together like aSwiss watch.” William Mastrosimone, playwright. “For several years, I’ve only beenpartially able to articulate, or utilize, what Bill’s book, and his teachingshave brought right out into the middle of things, where I have begun to believethey belong, and with blazing clarity. AustinPendleton, actor, director, playwright & master teacher. “I love working with Bill in his ACTING BY MISTAKE workshops. I’ve been takinghis workshops for over two years now. He gets us to ‘connect’ with thecharacter in an organic way. He helps us allay the normal fears we have asactors, and our need to get it ‘right’, by creating a playful process in whichwe focus more on the character’s experience than getting the exact words of thetext correct in the rehearsal process. That is so freeing. I’m feeling muchmore confident now in how I approach a character and trust that organic processof developing a character.” JohnSannuto, Chair, Theatre Department, Long Island University.
