NYIT Award winner for performance, Joe Plummer.

"Moritz von Stuelpnagel is a fine shaper of Shakespeare, staging the work with a becoming simplicity and leading the cast into a quietly confident, comfortable playing style."

"The clever staging choices… make the whole production feel homey, almost participatory. As old as the play is, in poortom’s hands it’s new, and it’s easy to feel proud of them when it succeeds."

"Most productions get bogged down in the prestige and reputation of the Bard, and end up with stuffy plays that would only appeal to English professors. Production company poortom, in its way, has put on one of the most respectful Shakespearean adaptations in recent memory — they aim to entertain."
