By Mark E. Leib Anyone who goes to the Asolo Rep with any regularity is used to the idea that the audience there is made up mostly of seniors. Oh sure, there's the occasional teenybopper or middle-aged couple, but the sea of white hair one notices before the lights go down is too obvious to ignore: The elderly, it seems, are Sarasota's most fervent theatergoers. Maybe it's because these seasoned citizens grew up before television and the Internet stole theater's crowds away; maybe it's ]]> Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 07 Apr 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=216508 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 07 Apr 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=215705 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 31 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=214993 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 24 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/devil_s_advocate/Content?oid=214999 The Devil's Disciple, with tremendous results.... By Mark E. Leib It's always rewarding to see a familiar actor shine in an unexpected way. I've watched James Clarke play so many brash and raffish characters at the Asolo Rep over the last 10 years, I would never have imagined him as a pure-hearted, deeply believing man of the cloth. But in George Bernard Shaw's The Devil's Disciple, Clarke plays Pastor Anthony Anderson, a good and honest minister, and he plays him so successfully, he makes goodness seem muscular, and religion a ]]> Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 24 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=214303 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 17 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=213797 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 10 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/doing_business/Content?oid=213800 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 10 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/winter_wonderland/Content?oid=213404 Winter's Tale.... By Mark E. Leib Every few years or so I see an actor perform Shakespeare with such skill and intelligence that I want to alert all lovers of theater to hurry and see for themselves. Now it's happened again: I've just watched Dan Donahue play Leontes in The Winter's Tale, and I can't imagine anyone else -- certainly no other American -- doing a better job. The feat is more admirable because Leontes is a problem character, one who shifts from good humor to ]]> Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 03 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=213433 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 03 Mar 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/good_council/Content?oid=213033 Arts (Old)/Features Wed, 25 Feb 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=213072 Arts (Old)/Features Wed, 25 Feb 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota http://sarasota.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/the_list/Content?oid=212541 Arts (Old)/Features Tue, 17 Feb 2009 04:00:00 MST Creative Loafing Sarasota
