Electropuss

“Watching ElectroPuss is like watching adult-themed Saturday morning cartoons. A show for those with short attention spans, it pulls you through a frantic, funny program of super-heroes and villains…What's far more enjoyable is watching Electric Land's progressive meltdown, character by character.”

“A Nightmare setting akin to Batman’s Gotham City comes to life in comic-book fashion.”

The Flu Season

"Theatre Vertigo launches its season with a polished, if not entirely flawless, production of contemporary playwright Will Eno’s knotty little piece “The Flu Season.”

Us VS Them

“I was continually drawn in by the relationships among the characters rather than the words themselves, which is clearly something that director (and actor) Michelle Seaton has fostered. Each actor not only connects and listens to his or her scene partners, but also maintains the same level of engagement in the creative scene changes. As the lights go down on the minimalist set, actors moving their props and set pieces stay in character, noticing and reacting to each other and the changes being made to the space."

Love and Other Information

“Cleverly staged in a minimalist theater-in-the-round style, it's a fast-paced collection of dozens of short scenes—some lasting mere seconds—and a panoply of nameless characters, played by a cast of 12. Each scene offers entirely new context and characters…... Under the direction of Michelle Seaton, Theatre Vertigo delivers. This is a remarkable, exciting performance—one that is surely no starfish reproduction of previous iterations.”
