    A free-spirited and engaging comedy for anyone who has ever been in love, this youthful indulgence is replete with love-smitten (and confused) men, cunning (and disguised) maidens, and the most likable and ill-mannered canine ever to grace the stage. Valentine and Proteus, the two gents in question, prove that Romeo is not the only lad in Verona to feel the raptures of love!

        The Utah Shakespeare Festival’s performance of Othello is the finest rendition I have ever seen. Jonathan Earl Peck, as Othello, flawlessly carries the wide range of emotions this character requires. His presence dominates the stage in every scene he is in. But, it is James Newcomb as the conniving Iago that truly transports one into the experience of the play. Newcomb is simply brilliant. From his first words, he engages the audience and draws them into the action of the play. The audience becomes an extra character. And despite the fact that Iago is a nasty, vengeful person, Newcomb is able to perform the character without the audience being forced to hate him. This is an amazing balance that could not be achieved by a lesser performer. Do not let my praise for James Newcomb reduce one’s attention for all the other players. As always, an excellent Shakespearean performance requires talent in all of the characters. This performance does not disappoint. Collapse
