REVIEWS

"Tangent Theatre approaches perfection with The Good Father."
"With a script as memorable as The Good Father and a performance like this, we can only conclude that the world will be a nicer place with more plays from Christian O’Reilly and the Hudson Valley will be culturally richer with even more productions from the Tangent Theatre Company."

-- Jim Donick, Northern Dutchess News

"A powerful stage performance that shouldn’t be missed."

-- Edward Meisel, Poughkeepsie Journal

"The material was so tightly and nicely constructed and just let us look into a very private space. Both actors kicked a** vulnerable and broken and in need of something they can't name. And I dig the space, I mean eight lights, two chairs, a table. Go."

-- David Simpatico, playwright/actor

"We were blown away. I was so proud of Tangent and of you guys and of Tivoli and of me. Felt like a real special moment. Loved the play no end. Kudos ad infinitum."

-- Rob Schott, audience member

"Wow. The Good Father is a sharp, smartly written play, acted with genuine affection and insight. Thank you for bringing it to the Hudson Valley and reminding me of what is possible only in a theater."

-- Stephen Mucher, audience member

"Cutting-edge theater at its best."

-- The Observer

"I'm so thrilled I made it to the show (you know it's good when you can't stop thinking about it)... It's entirely unique, raw, jarring and so very tender… How lucky we are to know this play!? I'm cheering for you."

-- Sarah Schaeffer, audience member

"Quite a ride. Tangent Theatre delivers a winner with The Vandal."

They find the truth in the script and in the actors and then find a way to turn the two into a single reality. It’s not often that a production leaves us truly gobsmacked.

"Magical...It's a keeper."

"The Village of Tivoli is not the obvious place one would expect to find theatrical magic, but there it is. Tangent Theatre Company have woven their spells or sprinkled their pixie dust, or maybe they just worked bloody hard at their craft. The result is clearly the dramatic production of the Hudson Valley season so far."

-- Jim Donick, Northern Dutchess News

Rivendell Theatre, Chicago

"Through passion and grit, Tangent has really elevated Tivoli's business district."

CIRCLE MIRROR TRANSFORMATION

by Annie Baker

As always, Tangent Theatre has produced a skillfully realized play with adroit direction."

-- Darrah Cloud & David Simpatico, Poughkeepsie Journal

"Theater at its best."

"Clear winner Tangent Theatre hits it out of the park with Circle Mirror Transformation."

"It's probably purely coincidental that Tangent Company is located on Broadway in Tivoli. Tivoli is likely about as “Off Broadway” as anyone in Manhattan might imagine but, with this production of “Circle Mirror Transformation,” Tangent proves their address is singularly appropriate."

-- Jim Donick, Northern Dutchess News
