Press
"The Circle X production of Anthony Clarvoe's adaptation of Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov at (Inside) the Ford is a grand achievement, a reminder of how good theater can be...This excellent show satisfies and impresses in equal measure... Langs' staging is creative and hums with vitality, fully utilizing Brian Sidney Bembridge's striking two-level set, a dilapidated squat that looks like it's been scheduled for demolition. Bembridge's lighting segues from realistic to stark, at one point brightly illuminating the Russian graffiti scrawled on the walls as though it were a background of heavenly latticework. This classic novel has received a classic production." --Terry Morgan for Variety
