PRESS“There are no cranky old men in Awaken. In fact, there’s no men in Awaken at all. Instead, Penner focuses on characters that Shakespeare often ignores or uses as plot devices: the women. All of this is brought skillfully together by director Krista Jackson imbues it with an intriguing, enigmatic air that makes for a tale worthy of heading out in the middle of winter for.”
“A smart and very well performed riff on The Winter’s Tale.”
