Patron Reviews

"A strangely compelling show that defies any attempt to describe it. In it's brevity the human condition is presented through a sorrowful lens. Cerebral and affecting, this show may not be to everyone's taste, but should be seen by everyone just to experience the sheer artfulness of it." – David (via Blogsite Theater)

"Congratulations on another mesmerizing production. It reminded me of the 60’s and 70’s!" – Deborah Kobritz, season ticket holder and Stage Setter

Reviews

"[A Dream Play] is like witnessing an exercise in free association ... once in a while, in the rambling chaos, you grasp a nugget that brings everything into focus ... Jobsite Theater's production does a fine job unearthing those rare treasures of wisdom." – The Tampa Tribune

"A little more than a century ago ... August Strindberg made a stage play out of the structure and psyche of a dream. In 2005, British playwright Caryl Churchill pared that monumental effort down to a scale more appropriate for contemporary theater ... [Jobsite's production] shows that both Strindberg and Churchill succeeded. So has Jobsite, with its admirable take on a difficult work ... Chris Holcom and his cast handle the material with airiness and humor. But it's still substantial and thought-provoking, full of ideas and images that stick with you." – St. Petersburg Times
