October-November 2012
Cadence Theatre Company in partnership with Virginia Repertory Theatre presents
The Pillowman, by Martin McDonagh
at Theatre Gym
“Directed by Steve Perigard, this is some of the most superb acting I have seen. Conyers and Janeski
shine onstage and every moment and their interaction is genuine and captivating. I could not take my
eyes off of either of them.”
–Jen Maciulewicz–www.gayrva.com
“In the small role as the title figure in Katurian’s story, ‘The Little Jesus,’ a young actor Sophie Shannon
wows. In the brief space of less than 10 minutes, she is fierce, graceful and heartbreaking.”
–Liz Jewett—Richmond.com
“It’s an incredibly riveting and soul wringing experience…Put this down as a must see. A definite must
see for any lover of true drama.”—John Porter, WCVE Public Radio
“I applaud Cadence for bringing this relevant contemporary work to Richmond. I challenge theatre goers
to consider attending before the production closes on November 10. Surprisingly, I found the production
clarifying as I grapple with how to handle my vote in a few days. But isn’t that the gift of art – a way to
look at things sideways?”—Katie Mattes, Midlothian, Virginia
