Every year I have thought I would bring my children to this show, then the busy season takes over. Well this year it ended up working out and was it every worth the wait, it was fantastic. The actors were marvelous, engaging and very lively and the after show questions was a wonderful idea. Collapse

This was by far one of the most entertaining evenings I have spent in a long time. I was enchanted, charmed, moved, and amused at this clever pairing of two short plays I had never heard of. The acting was SUPERB and in both plays which are starkly differnt yet compliment each other so well, the chemsitry of the pair of actors was astonishing. This is the second time I have been to this theatre for their summer rep and this is the second time I was so surprised by the talent, wonderful choice of scripts, and the technical professionalism and creativity of the shows. I so look forward to the next two shows! Do yourself a favor, grab a tissue (first show is a good, beautiful cry interspersed with such levity and poetry) and go spend a great 2 1/2 hours in Sunnyvale! Collapse

What a fantastic show all around! The script was clever, the acting really wonderful and skillful, and the technical magic is so worth it. CTC does a stellar job with this production from beginning to end. Surprisingly scary, adn as a lover of horror films I was certainly skeptical at how theatre could make me jump. But it's just such a unique and wonderful piece. Please go see this, it's the last week and you'll be really delighted you did. Collapse

I saw a sample of this show at their performance for the Santana Row Performing Arts Day, and the three actors in the show were hilarious. It's a quick-paced show, and these guys have the right chemistry to pull it off brilliantly. I've seen the show (by another theatre company) before, and had a great time - Shakespeare doesn't have to be stuffy! Collapse

Wildly funny yet sad at some points. California Theatre center does a great retelling of this clasic story.
