“San Francisco’s Cutting Ball Theater is doing a remarkable thing.”
“The Ghost Sonata” is…thoroughly compelling…often surreal and dreamlike, with several long, poetic speeches, it’s given great immediacy and emotional gravity by Melrose’s sharp staging and the cast’s deeply resonant performances.”
“Throughout [The Ghost Sonata], macabre turns of events that could easily be ridiculous are made captivating by the outstanding production and by Strindberg’s gloomy (and sometimes incisively aphoristic) eloquence. It’s a fantastic opening to the series that leaves one eager for more.”
