In 2011, Dukakis played the leading role of Flora in
The Milk Train Doesn’t Stop Here Anymore at the Laura Pels Theatre. “Macabre, hilarious and weirdly touching more or less sums up Ms. Dukakis’ performance,” wrote Charles Isherwood in his
New York Times review of that production, “although a host of other adjectives might also be applied to her multihued portrait of a woman who has married and buried four husbands but cannot face the truth when the reaper comes to escort her from life’s banquet.” He continued: “While Ms. Dukakis renders with broad, almost Borscht Belt humor the vulgar aspects of the character, she shades her performance with haunting glimpses of deeper feeling.”

Point Loma Playhouse: The Meeting by Jeff Stetson is a powerful drama about the lives, philosophies, and times of Dr Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. by Jeff Stetson. Fascinating and dramatically compelling, this eloquent play depicts the supposed meeting of two of the most important men of modern times: Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Differing in their philosophies, the two men debate their varying approaches to the same grave social problems, both prepared to die for their beliefs but neither aware of how soon their assassins’ bullets would await them. This exciting and provocative play draws on many of the actual words of each man, it provides excellent insight into each and also how having the courage to speak and listen to others can help us find common ground and new solutions, even if such dialogue comes at a personal cost. Directed by Jerry Pilato. Starring Rhys Greene, J. Kay Weldon, Julian King Monroe
