Great Expectations
"Field's adaptation expertly preserves the crucial story points while cleverly infusing the dialogue with welcome humor." Nancy Pothier, Backstage West Camille "...A major theatrical achievement....By going back to the novel and, let it be said, adding her own emphases, Field has made this less a play about romantic love than a very modern play about the buying and selling of love, about the owning of people and, indirectly, about the owning of women and their recourses in a jaded masculine society'" Mike Steele, Minneapolis Star/Tribune Off the Ice "Field has crafted an imaginative, bawdy, surprise-a-minute play, sprinkled with brilliant dialogue and driven by this thrilling theme: "The whole point of emancipation is you own yourself." Patricia Corrigan, St. Louis Post Dispatch |
Playing With Fire (Frankenstein) "In this astounding production, Field portrays Frankenstein as a young student who owes his folly only to a dangerous combination of naivete an a powerful intellect...the play is ultimately more chilling than the old RKO productions that sent audiences screaming from the theaters." Judy Lewis, City Pages Boundary Waters "...we walked out of Boundary Waters uplifted and high on the miracle of life. What a provoking work. All the way home we talked non-stop, energized by the myriad concepts and dichotomous connections that Barbara Field presented in her Prize-winning play." Shirle Gottlieb, DramaLogue |
