A MAGICAL MUSICAL TOUR
103 Years of Songs from Peter Pan

with ROBERT YACKO (center) as Captain Hook

“Enthralling enchantment! The Santa Barbara Theatre’s holiday present to our fair city is Magical! An accomplished cast...was in peak form. Albert Ihde’s direction was flawless.” —Alex Henteloff, CASA Santa Barbara

“I’m A Believer!
(A Magical Musical Tour) sparkled with confidence and musicality.” —Charles Donelan, Santa Barbara Independent

“Delightful!...The several tracks from the Bernstein score, composed just a few years before West Side Story, offered rhythmic and melodic complexity that have us eagerly awaiting the whole shebang next year.” —Steven Libowitz, Santa Barbara Daily Sound

DOUBT

by John Patrick Shanley with VICTORIA TENNANT (left) and KIRSTEN KOLLENDER

“Asaad Kelada has directed a very accomplished and electrifying version of DOUBT. ...The supporting roles of this drama are crucial and Kirsten Kollander (as Sister James) and Judith Scott (as Mrs. Muller) both deliver outstanding performances.” —Charles Donelan, Santa Barbara Independent

“The Santa Barbara Theatre...continues to challenge our imaginations and expectations DOUBT is the latest jewel in SBT’s crown.” —Alex Henteloff, CASA Santa Barbara

VICTORY

by Athol Fugard
with (left to right) LOVENSKY JEAN-BAPTISTE, TINASHE KAJESE and MORLAN HIGGINS

“Good things do, sometimes, come in small packages. At just over an hour, this good tragedy is complete. Superbly directed by Stephen Sachs, it is wound subtly tight and it plays out, as it must, with its climax leaving one completely devastated...Sachs again shows his bond with Fugard and Higgins, also. Not since Eugene O’Neill, Jose Quintero, and Jason Robards, Jr., has a theatrical trio so lifted the bar of theatre drama.” —Alex Henteloff, CASA Santa Barbara
