Jakers Productions

Interestingly penned quasi-historical comedy with echoes of serious contemporary issues. Performances stuck largely to the middle of a short road. Hazarding abrupt shoulders of higher theatricality (while still avoiding potholes of low comedy) might’ve offered a better view of this wondrously broad landscape (e.g., the king in shackles and shadows).

Wonder of the World
Jakers Productions at the Magdelyn Theatre

Absurdist farce of a woman leaving her oppressive husband and traveling to Niagara on a “journey of self-discovery” has potential to be dementedly delightful. But the humor in Julie Akers’ directing (of which, admittedly, we saw only the first half) is stopped up when it should cascade like a waterfall.
