Mint Theater Company will continue its Silver Lining Streaming Series with the on-demand streaming of the three-camera archival recording (filmed in HD!) of Katie Roche by Teresa Deevy, directed by Jonathan Bank, beginning FEBRUARY 1st and continuing through MARCH 28th The price of admission is FREE. To receive a password, visit MintTheater.org.
Days To Come by Lillian Hellman (The Little Foxes, Watch on the Rhine, Toys in the Attic, The Children s Hour), directed by J.R. Sullivan, continues through FEBRUARY 21st. Days To Come turns out to be a gripping piece of storytelling, one whose failure and subsequent obscurity make no sense at all. This is the 14th Mint Theater revival that I ve reviewed since 2005, and the 14th time I ve raved about the results. Such unfailing excellence merits much wider recognition. If you ve yet to see what the Mint can do, start here! said Terry Teachout in The Wall Street Journal.

For more than half his professional life, Gus Kaikkonen has called the Peterborough Players his artistic home. It’s where the longtime artistic director has worked with legendary actors and helped mentor others just cutting their teeth in the theater business.
He has helped plan and arrange more than two decades of summer seasons and over the previous four years, done the same for a shortened winter lineup. Add it all up and Kaikkonen has in some way, shape or form put his fingerprints on more than 160 shows – and that’s not even counting all the Second Company productions, which began during Kaikkonen’s first year on staff. He has directed and acted, designed sets and helped raise the bar for the small town theater organization with a longstanding tradition and national recognition. But as they say, all good things must come to an end.
