Word
for Word Revels in Wolff Tales - Robert Hurwitt, SF
Chronicle Saturday, July 27, 2002. "One woman's spiritual
martyrdom to academia, another woman's remembrances of a love misplaced
and the grisly death of a critic are all beautifully brought to
life in Word for Word's "Stories by Tobias Wolff" at the Magic Theatre.
It isn't just that Wolff's stories are such compact delights nor
that the company brings them to the stage with its typically inventive
skill. It's the near perfect fit of form, content, skill and sensibility
that makes for theatrical magic."

Word for Word makes Tobias Wolff stories howl. - Chad Jones,
Oakland Tribune
" Stories
by Tobias Wolff is easily this summer's can't-miss show. The ingredients
are simple. Take three short stories by Wolff, a Stanford professor
most famous for his memoir, "This Boy's Life." Add in
Word for Word, the Bay Area company that turns short fiction into
fantastic theater without changing a word of the original text." |
