“An artistic masterpiece in every way, Cutting Ball Theatre’s modern interpretation of the classic, yet rarely staged, Pelleas and Melisande, conquers a small theater with feats of innovative staging and energetic acting.”

“Maurice Maeterlinck’s Pelleas & Melisande shimmers like a fairy tale, confounds rational expectations and yet somehow remains engrossing in the Cutting Ball Theater production…All of that is a testament to director Rob Melrose’s crisp translation (just out in the latest volume from Exit Press) and his elegant stagings. …[Pelleas & Melisande is] a sweet pleasure.”
