“AN ABSOLU ABSORBING, AND SHARP
- New Yo
Pulitzer Prize Winner Annie Baker has crafted a hilarious comedy that presents a gleefully voyeuristic peek at actors’ behind-the-scenes shenanigans, revealing their weird and wonderful idiocies and idiosyncrasies.
THERESA
Disillusioned actress - Lost
Vivacious Theresa, shy Shultz, angsty Lauren, and gregarious James: four lost souls join an Acting Class run by “earth mother” Marty, each one hoping to start the year with a brand new chapter in their lives. But it soon becomes clear that this is much more than an Acting Class, as the fun and seemingly harmless theatre games blur into their private lives, creating epic episodes of absurd comedy, and real-life drama of theatrical proportions.

UTE FEAST! UNBLINKING PLY FUNNY.”
Shultz

Role-play becomes awkwardly personal, jaw-dropping secrets are revealed, wars are won and lost, hearts are quietly torn apart, and lives are transformed forever… Circle Mirror Transformation is an intimate and intricate examination of human nature, revealing how all of us are searching for answers to questions we don’t even know we’re asking. Winner of the Obie Award for ‘Best New Play’, 2010, and voted by the New York Times, Time Out & the New Yorker as one of the Top Ten Plays of 2009, Circle Mirror Transformation is “...humorous and heartbreaking.” (Associated Press)
