WASHINGTON POST
“…director Rebecca Bayla Taichman delivers a thoughtful, gently ironic “Cymbeline”…It’s a genial rendering, filled with pleasing directorial touches…”
WASHINGTON CITY PAPER
“The good news is that director Rebecca Bayla Taichman has laid out the play’s complications about as clearly as anyone could hope for; it’s pretty clean storytelling… Pretty pretty storytelling, too, with that giant tree painted in shadows and light across the back of the stage… A storyteller and a little girl, paging through a giant book that produces the occasional pop-up tree— plus other, more disturbing surprises—frame the story helpfully … A stylish staging can be something striking indeed.”
TALKIN BROADWAY
“Rebecca Bayla Taichman has created a production of [Cymbeline] for Washington’s Shakespeare Theatre Company that’s…beautifully visual and easy to follow…”
