What a terrific show! Beautifully written, skillfully directed with an across the board stellar cast. A remarkable Jackie Hansen drove this piece but there wasn't a weak link among this wonderful ensemble of actors. Bravo to them all. ...

Today I had the very good fortune of seeing HARBOR CITY TONIGHT.
A high concept dark comedy written by the talented Ryan Wilson, impressively directed by Caitlin Zambito with a wonderful cast and a stellar performance by Jackie Hanson. I ran home and an hour after the show, I had tickets to go see it again. You snooze, you lose on this gem.
GO SEE IT!
