This was a date night since we both love the book and my wife has been wanting to attend theater again for a while now. We really enjoyed the production on the whole, with good sets, production, and acting for the most part. The high point was the actress Kate Donadio, who played Mrs. Who and others. Really, all the performances were pretty spot-on, except for the part of Charles Wallace. For some reason they decided to portray him as if he were an extremely immature and almost simple child, when the character in the book is anything but either of those things. His exaggerated actions and over-the-top behavior was frustrating to watch. I couldn't say if it was the actor's fault or the direction, but we left there wanting to research the writer's work to see if he or she intended the character to be played that way. All in all, though, the play was a very satisfying adaptation of a complex book and enjoyable for a broad variety of audience, as eveidenced by the little 4 or 5 year old girl's comments behind us. Be prepared to put up with an unfortunate and annoying representation of Charles Wallace, but be even more ready to enjoy a well-told and well-represented story that has several layers of interesting commentary within an engaging story, no matter the age level.

Exemplary, excellent, entertaining!

My wife and I live far OTP and never quite know how easy/bad parking will be for stuff like this, but Google Street View showed a parking lot across the street and it was $5, so no big deal.

Ticket pickup was quick and painless. We were warned that it was a 90-minute show with no intermission, so we hit the restrooms upstairs before heading to our seats.

I'm not sure if it was because we bought our tickets through Goldstar or it was just the luck of the draw, but our tickets were for two seats in the front row. Nice, you say? Well, no.

The tickets were for the _last two seats_ in the front row (up against the wall) and the scenery (a fake tree, specifically) blocked part of our view of the stage. Not nice. (We did notice that there was a sprinkling of empty seats in the section behind us, but climbing over people to get to them would have been rather gauche.)

I'm not an expert at these things, but I think that the actors did a good job and, overall, the production was well done.

My wife read the AWiT book as a kid and when this popped up on our radar, decided that she wanted to see the play, so I tagged along. I think it's safe to say that we both left with a "meh" reaction. Perhaps her impressionable mind has matured over the years, but on the drive home, we discussed that it was the same tired story of good vs. evil. I guess I expected more.

I took my 8 year old daughter to see A Wrinkle in Time. She was riveted to the stage. We had a lovely evening, the performance was great!
