Season 12

“Performance wise we have a very strong cast. Anna Lathrop’s performance gets inside of Lexie’s head as she gives a vivid portrait of a soldier just back from war. You can tell she has been rattled even though she says she’s fine.”

“Strasser, Donnelly and Lathrop are very believable in their respective roles and give multi-dimensional performances that demonstrate a solid understanding of their characters’ identities and why they might behave like they do.”

Theater Alliance “…has a talent for getting an audience to discuss the show they have just seen, which is becoming a lost art. When art is confined to the theater, it is easy to dismiss. When we carry it out into the world with us, dismissal becomes much harder. … You will carry Spark with you.”

“Theater Alliance’s world premiere production of Spark, directed by Colin Hovde, ignites a bold, new, and crucial facet of theatre’s war stories, introducing the female soldier to the canon and examining the complex and trying ripple effects that stem from a warrior returned home.”

“Donnelly and Lathrop are spellbinding in their balance of strength and uncertainty.”
