I always look forward to every show by Upstream Theater, because I know I will transported somewhere I've never been before. It may be another country, or it may be a state of mind. Whatever the case, I know it will be a magical place that will take me far beyond any expectations I may have. With playwright Joanna Evans' THE YEAR OF THE BICYCLE, we're taken to places that fall into both categories. Acted with passion and energy, and brimming with an extraordinary sense of visual style, this production explores relations in South Africa between whites and blacks, while also giving us a glimpse of the afterlife. It's only about an hour or so long, but it leaves a lasting impression. This is what Upstream Theater consistently does; provide must-see productions that challenge and invigorate.

Upstream Theater continues its 12th season with The Year of the Bicycle.

He may not have money, he may not have power...but where there's a wit, there's a way. Figaro is a comic chameleon unmatched across history: clever, insubordinate, restless, lustful, agent of chaos, champion of love, jack of all trades, and man for all seasons. For more than two hundred years, this wily valet has spoken words that have incited revolution and performed deeds that make audiences fall in love with him time and again.

When you're a critic and you witness a magical evening of theatre it's hard not to be overly enthused and gush about it, but Upstream Theater's current production of Nikolai Gogol's (adaptation by David Holman) DIARY OF A MADMAN is simply brilliant and truly deserving of such praise. Upstream consistently brings quality presentation of plays both old and new, and oft times they're adaptations of classic literature. A pair of splendid performers are guided by an expert hand to create a night of must-see entertainment, as engaging and thought-provoking as any show you've ever seen.

Whether your political views favor one side or the other in the continuing conflict between Israel and Palestine, you're sure to find Blue Rose Stage Collective's debut presentation of MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE to be a provocative and compelling piece of theatre. A superb performance by Magan Wiles drives this tragic tale of a young peace activist who was killed by an Israeli bulldozer in 2003 while protesting the destruction of homes in occupied Palestine.

In 2003, 23-year-old American Rachel Corrie was crushed to death by an Israeli Defense Forces bulldozer in the Gaza strip. A volunteer with the International Solidarity Movement, Corrie was protesting the destruction of Palestinian homes. With the permission of the Corrie family, actor Alan Rickman and Guardian journalist Katharine Viner accessed Rachel Corrie's diaries and emails and edited a huge volume of her written material into a 70-minute one-woman show titled MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE.
