Written on Apr 30 2012The intimacy of the theater and the script worked together to provide a stunning encounter with Grief. Not too under or over-done, the cast worked so well together. I will be watching for other productions from this diamond-in-the-ruff theater.
Written on Apr 24 2012Excellent acting, great set, nice venue. Really a must-see!
Written on Apr 23 2012I was told by a friend it was amazing, so I had high expectations - it was good. A must see if you like watching a family struggle through the loss of their child - quite a downer with a few one-liners mixed in to break the tension.
Written on Apr 23 2012The cast was great and the show was great. The subject matter is dark but the human relationships and the wonderful interactions between the charactors made the story real and enjoyable! It was much lighter than expected. A great night!
Written on Apr 23 2012The playhouse did an excellent job of presenting a very poignant story of a family experiencing the tragic loss of a young son. Each of the actors played their role in a unique and memorable manner. They really brought forth their character without overplaying the part. The script held real meaning of this sensitive situation. Bravo!!!
Written on Apr 23 2012Tough topic, a family losing a young son due to an accident...but I'm glad CCCT took it on. And right when the audience was in the grips of the gloom, some very funny lines came...and did we laugh!
The actors were so well-chosen for their parts. So believable.
Written on Apr 23 2012First rate production. Each actor was perfectly matched with their character. Just enough emotion and drama without being overdone. Excellent, excellent. Thank you.
Written on Apr 16 2012I was impressed with the professionalism of what is a local group.
I felt the play was slow at the beginning, perhaps because the
child's death had not been revealed. Parents' reactiions to a child's
death cannot be put in a gestalt but are so individual.
I liked the boy's reading of his letter, but I felt the scene between him
and Becca was stilted and unnecessary.
From her reactions and expressions I did not get a sense of her grief as
I have in the past with bereaved mothers.and certainly less intense than
of her husband.There was hope at the end and that is always a good beginning.
Written on Apr 16 2012This was a fabulous performance! Very well written and extremely well acted!!! My friends and I loved it!!! We want to come back for West Side Story!
Written on Apr 16 2012The play is a little weaker than the acting. The acting was very professional and made the entire experience a real plus for theater.
Written on Apr 16 2012Very good play with really good acting. A nice way to spend our afternoon.
Written on Apr 16 2012What a terrific theater experience. The amount of humor in a play about such a heartbreaking subject was surprising, but soothing and not forced. The playwright didn't milk the subject matter - its really not a tearjerker. It is about adults coping with the aftermath of tragedy, when their life has been forcefully redefined. See it.
Written on Apr 16 2012Well cast and acted production. A thoroughly enjoyable evening of theater.
Written on Apr 15 2012Unlike the film, this play is funny as well as very, very sad. I especially loved the sister, a role that almost disappeared in the film. She added contrast, humor, a lovely liveliness as well as a different kind of pathos to the play. The staging is wonderful and the monologue the Mother gives regarding the death of a child is deeply moving. I loved it so much, I'm going to see it again!
Written on Apr 11 2012A wonderful rendition of a difficult topic.
Written on Apr 09 2012Thought the script and the acting were excellent. A very thought-provoking and honest play about grieving.
Written on Apr 09 2012A great show for community theater. Sad play but had humorous moments. When the lights went up at the end I thought I could sit there for another hour or so, which is always good. I have been to those plays when you can't wait for it to end and this was not like that.
Written on Apr 09 2012Very good on all levels. Great cast, balanced performances from all members. Recommended for mature audience. Almost full house on opening night. Definitely a play to tell friends to attend.
Written on Apr 09 2012Great play and very polished performances by all the cast. Highly recommed it.
Written on Apr 09 2012I laughed out loud and cried to myself. This play took you on an emotional roller coaster of the best kind, making you feel the pain of the characters and the intensity of a good laugh. As in real life, laughter gets your through a lot of hard times and that is portrayed through out this story. All of the characters were very believable; you could place yourself in any one of their shoes. Bravo!

Contra Costa Civic Theatre was founded in 1959 by Bettianne and Louis Flynn. Their vision was to establish a quality community theatre in El Cerrito . That that vision has been realized can best be summed up by what the East Bay Express recently wrote: "Contra Costa Civic Theatre . . . puts on comedies and musicals, mysteries and dramas from Sondheim to the Marx Brothers to Agatha Christie with unusually solid production values".
