“The result is an ethereal experience, a dreamlike but familiar new take on a classic ideal…There’s a deliberate minimalism..All of these elements combine to create storytelling both approachable and effective. The way the actors jump effortlessly from one character to the next feeds into the story’s themes of adaptability and transformation— It all feels like a bedtime story, at once thrillingly fantastical and comfortingly familiar.”

“Director Tracy Cameron Francis choreographs the sport onstage most sensitively: there is a lyricism in the movement that matches O'Neill's witty, poetic language. Ballet powered by brute force fills the space when a game explodes onstage.”

“Holy Land is a play that definitely needs to be seen, simply to illustrate a conflict that attracts precious little theatrical expression in front of Western audiences. On stage, in translation at HERE, director Tracy Cameron Francis manages to extract bracing, compelling performances from material that is often impermeable in its absurdity, but brutal and unflinching in its delivery..”

“The Maids poses several production challenges, not least of which is Genet’s indifference to narrative clarity. With the help of a talented three-person cast, all of whom demonstrate an obvious affinity for Genet’s unconventional plotting, mordant wit, and often opaque lyricism, director Tracy Francis Cameron meets these challenges head-on, smartly unpacking Genet’s complicated ideas about repression and struggle while also fearlessly tweaking the play for a modern audience.”

“(****) Psalms of a Questionable Nature offers strong performances and a compellingly depressing look at the ties that bind.”

“By El-Husseiny’s lights, revolution seemed less an historical event to be celebrated and more an existential condition through which each character must enter and exit over the course of the play. Hybrid Theatre’s production at HERE expands on this ambivalence.. Tracy Cameron Francis directs a production that pushes the revolution far beyond the boundaries of space and time, throwing it into a surreal fog of claustrophobic chaos and misapprehended memory.”

“The intensity simmers at just below the boiling point through much of this production of Jean Genet's "The Maids." And it seems to be exactly the right temperature for this heady cocktail of ritual role-playing, class hatred, humiliation, self-loathing, and sexuality.Director Tracy Cameron Francis has staged the production for maximum immediacy within the fairly intimate quarters imaginatively transformed into Madame's boudoir.”

“This story is told mainly through dance and movement on an essentially bare stage with minimal dialogue. It is a work of Art, a painting, a tabloid that moves, undulates, weaves into your conscious and sub-conscious. And so the work must be experienced visually, through one’s senses, to fully absorb the impact.”

“Psalms of a Questionable Nature offers strong performances and a compellingly depressing look at the ties that bind. Kunkel and Heitman, both excellent, are well served by director Tracy Francis, who utilizes the realistic setting to forge a real connection between Greta and Moo.”
