​Press:
  • THREE STARS:  “When Chekhov works, it's magic . .  Cino's production does an admirable job of bringing the audience into this world of the idle rich. The cast's performances mine the often-overlooked comedy inherent in Chekhov, evoking an Arrested Development circa pre-revolutionary Russia . . . Three Sisters features . . .  Stone's appealingly sardonic Masha, Derrick Peterson as a pompous but vulnerable Vershinin and David J. Goldberg's shaded turn as the head of the Prozorov clan .”   - Time Out New York (Three Sisters)
  • "As much as they try, the well-intentioned friends cannot escape the confines of their privilege. Cino, who based the play on Isak Dinesen's short story "Carnival," has created vivid characters that are fascinating to watch as they wrestle with identity. There are many big ideas woven in about the fairness of capitalism and the distribution of wealth, but Cino ties them so organically to the characters that there isn't a preachy moment in this riveting show."  - THEATERMANIA (Decompression)
  • "Fringiest of the Fringe" - New York Times (Decompression)
  • "Cino is a writer of astonishing versatility and imagination."  - The Villager (Decompression)
  • "A fascinating piece of work." - NYTheatre.com (Decompression)
  • FOUR STARS  "Cino has a gift for natural dialogue, and the actors deliver convincing, funny and touching portrayals of the play's characters."  ---  Time Out NY (Warm Enough for Swimming)
  • "A beautiful, bracing play and one of the dramatic highlights of this year’s Fringe." -- Theater Is Easy (Warm Enough for Swimming)
  • "A quietly explosive family study."  -- nytheatrenow (Warm Enough for Swimming)
  • " . . .  much popular fiction dreams of seeking out lost societies and magic realms; fewer, braver fantasies, like Bonedive Scrounger, consider what happens when Brigadoon doesn’t want you." - HiLoBrow (Bonedive Scrounger)
  • Unsex Me Here leans towards the subtle, the intimate, and the personal,. . .O'Brien brings fine-drawn nuance to Lady Macbeth right from her first scene . . . O’Brien and Stone generate palpable chemistry and tension . . .   Vaughan is excellent as Macduff  . . . This casting experiment imparts new energy to familiar scenes . . . One hopes that it won't require an apocalypse for us to begin to rethink gendered normativities (including their reinforcement through language), and Unsex Me Here: The Tragedy of Macbeth provides an entertaining starting point with a singular (re)vision. —  Thinking Theater (Unsex Me Here: The Tragedy of Macbeth)
