What the critics are saying about TPT... ORANGE FLOWER WATER “The hilarious and harrowing production (Orange Flower Water) is one of the strongest debuts of a fledgling company in a long time.” Bill Hirschman ~ Sun-Sentinel “Good news. The Promethean Theatre is a young company to watch, and it’s debut production of Orange Flower Water is as exciting as it is promising...Don’t miss this one. Octavio Roca ~ New Times full review “If this new company’s debut production is any indication, area theatre goers will be enjoying it’s work for years to come...The entire performance, theatrical setting and overall experience is first rate. You would be hard pressed to find a better value at the theatre anywhere in South Florida.” Mark Hayes ~ WDNA 88.9FM |
| DESDEMONA: A PLAY ABOUT A HANDKERCHIEF “‘Desdemona’ yet another mark of company’s aim for greatness...(TPT’s) March debut of Craig Wright’s Orange Flower Water got strong reviews and managed to beat the New York production onto the stage. And now their second production suggests the quality of the first was no fluke, and that this company is already one decidedly worth watching.” Christine Dolen ~ The Miami Herald full review “The play is only the second production of the new Promethean Theater Company. Based upon the professionalism of the acting, directing, and design, they will be a company to watch out for."

| BUCK FEVER "In its third production, the Promethean Theatre has arrived: original, bold, and full of talent. It is a company, so far, that shoots and does not miss." Mark Hayes ~ WDNA 88.9FM "Buck Fever is another success for this young company that refuses to accept theater is a dying art meant solely for Boomers and seniors. Their work speaks directly to sensibilities of audiences in their 20s and 30s wise enough to take a night off from the multiplex." Bill Hirschman ~ Sun Sentinel "As with Promethean's previous shows, Buck Fever is clearly the work of theater pros from South Florida's ever-deepening talent pool...first-rate work...an experience that feels heart-breakingly genuine." Christine Dolen ~ Miami Herald "The Promethean Theater can add "Buck Fever" to its list of triumphs, after the successes last year of "Orange Flower Water" and "Desdemona". This new producing troupe, founded by Deborah L. Sherman and Beth McIntosh, has garnered a well-earned reputation for interesting plays and accomplished actors." Drury Lane ~ Entertainment News & Views |
| BLUE /ORANGE "Broward County theater just got noticeably better with the arrival of The Promethean Theatre... Find it you should. Promethean is making a dazzling Broward debut with its production of Blue/Orange, a smart, disturbingly funny piece...under Margaret M. Ledford's fine, intricate direction, Promethean's trio makes Blue/Orange a brash contender for next year's Carbonell Awards." Christine Dolen ~ MIAMI HERALD "The Promethean Theatre cements its growing reputation as a showcase for acting and directorial talent with the production of "Blue/Orange" in a new venue in Davie...local professional theatre at its best." Drury Lane ~ ENTERTAINMENT NEWS & VIEWS "Promethean makes impressive NSU bow...Score one for Promethean...an entertaining tale with a lively acting turn, an attention grabbing showcase for the debut in a new space...There's much to look forward to." Jack Zink ~ SUN SENTINEL "With its production of Joe Penhall's play Blue/Orange, The Promethean Theatre proves that it is a theatre company to be reckoned with. The selection of material, acting, directing and production value equals, if not surpasses, the work of long established and amply funded fellow professional theatres such as The Caldwell and The Florida Stage." John Lariviere ~ TALKIN BROADWAY "The Prometheans have, in little over a year, brought South Florida a number of excellent productions all under the scrupulous direction of Margaret Ledford...The company deserved a better facility the moment they put on their first production and now they have it...Blue/Orange is a thought provoking, clever, sharp, thoroughly entertaining and worthwhile evening of theatre. Call me crazy, but The Prometheans have done it again, no question about it!" Mark Hayes ~ WDNA 88.9FM Click here to read more rave reviews for Blue/Orange. |
