'Galileo' Review: Musical With Raul Esparza is Assertive but Awkward

This world premiere at Berkeley Rep has strengths, not least the vocal prowess of its cast. Still, it’s hard to imagine an easy road ahead for it.

Enjoyed speaking with 2-time Pulitzer Prize winning playwright #LynnNottage for this insightful conversation for the @sfchronicle in advance of #Clydes at Berkeley Repertory Theatre. The show opens Jan. 25. So many pearls of wisdom about the process of one of our greatest living playwrights. #BerkeleyRep https://datebook.sfchronicle.com/theater/why-lynn-nottage-embraces-complex-conflicted-characters

One of my favorite pieces I wrote for the @sfchronicle Datebook was this profile on the musical #Goddess, which premiered in August, 2022 at #BerkeleyRep. The piece is complemented with a gorgeous photo spread by Jessica Christian. #hellatheatre #theater https://datebook.sfchronicle.com/theater/berkeley-reps-world-premiere-hopes-to-become-broadways-next-big-hit-musical
