What I liked

I loved that this show is a heartfelt celebration of why we do theater. It reminds us of the stories that have been told in a space, the stories that will be told in a space, and the indelible mark they leave on our hearts and minds. This production is a must-see for anyone who appreciates the behind-the-scenes magic, as you see the work that goes into building the sets that transform a stage!

My overall impression

Poignant and touching! THE BUILD’s exploration of an actor’s dream of the theater was both inspiring and bittersweet. Through the characters’ journeys, the cast reconciles the gruff grind of theater with the dedication, perseverance, and passion that drive performers to pursue their craft. The production’s honest portrayal of the highs and lows of a theatrical career (in one afternoon) struck a chord, resonating with everyone here who has dared to dream big.
