REVIEWS

“Not liking this play’s acting and staging seems a crime worth punishing…gripping and stimulating piece of theater…crams a surprising amount of good stuff into its 90-minute length. Few scenes demonstrate Williams’ incredible range more powerfully than Raskolnikov’s vivid description of a tormented dream he had about a weak and suffering horse being beaten by its impatient master.”
--The Lakeland Ledger

“There is much to admire in the Orlando-UCF Shakespeare Festival’s production…Director Jim Helsinger has used an arsenal of tricks gleaned from the Festival’s gothic-horror tales to lead his audience into the desperate world of the criminal. Eric T. Haugen’s eerie lighting isolates Raskolnikov in a hell of his own making, an unsettling series of dreary rooms designed by Bob Phillips’ off-kilter walls.”
--The Orlando Sentinel

“The set is sparse and menacing with scrims and lighting taking us through this almost cubist telling of the story. Williams combines innocence and a cocksure conviction he’s right and invincible…”
--www.ink19.com

“Its many intersecting plot lines fall into one haltingly austere story of a thoughtless murder perpetrated by a reckless young man with nothing left to lose. Three very adept actors play Crime and Punishment characters…Williams, in particular, gives a solid performance, hitting the mark…
