THE SONS OF LINCOLN by Larry Gold–The LillianTheater
with Glynn Turman, Chadd Allen, Lawrence Monoson, Joel Polis and Bill Faggerbakke.

-Larry Gold’s play, “The Sons of Lincoln,” is a bizarre conglomeration of screechy racist rants and small-scale power struggles. The production at the LillianTheater gathers enough steam to become theatrically exciting, not so much because of the play, which remains undisciplined if occasionally provocative, but due to Valerie Landsburg’s vibrant direction of an exciting, explosive cast. Landsburg keeps it moving at a rapid-fire pace. Above all, what makes this unpleasant material watchable is the acting, which has a constant energy reminiscent of the style of Chicago’s Steppenwolf company. -Daily Variety

THE BOYS OF MARIEL by Bill Yule and Barry Ball.-The Lillian Theater

-The play follows a group of men exiled from Cuba as part of the Mariel Boatlift.... It's all about Landsburg's direction. She has created some unforgettable staging and captures that ineffable sense of the depth and strength of the human bond. -BackstageWest
