ENDGAME
by Samuel Beckett
Featuring Gabriel Luna, Jarrett King, Helen Rain Messenger, and Maarouf Naboulsi

Austin Applause Award, Production of a Drama

 Director Kate Eminger and the fine, aware cast play this difficult material with sensitivity, variations in rhythm and timing, and with no fear of the harshness of the text.
– Austin Live Theatre

Beckett is fuckin' hard. For a young company to tackle one of his most pitfall-laden works is downright audacious, ostentatious and, in the case of Palindrome Theatre's production directed with savvy by Kate Eminger, a damned blessing...
– The Austinist

Produced by Palindrome Theatre, Austin, TX


MELANCHOLY PLAY
by Sarah Ruhl

Austin Critics Table Award Nominations: Best Production of a Comedy; Best Ensemble Cast;
B. Iden Payne Nomination, Best Original Score (Matt Hines)

"Director Kate Eminger stages the play with delicate care. There's a sweetness in Ruhl's script that is apparent from the very beginning, and Eminger has managed to get her actors to extend that sweetness into their performances. [...] What is probably most surprising about this very funny, utterly charming, and truly sweet production is that the play, in the end, is not melancholy at all. …The further it went, the more I began to smile, until, at the end, I was quite literally grinning stupidly from ear to ear."
-The Austin Chronicle

Produced by Palindrome Theatre, Austin, Texas - Regional Premiere


HEDDA GABLER
by Henrik Ibsen
Adaptation by Nigel O'Hearn

B. Iden Payne Nomination, Best Production of a Drama
Austin Applause Awards: Actress in a Lead Role (Robin Grace Thompson); Actress in a Supporting Role (Chase Crossno); Actor in a Supporting Role (Rommel Sulit)
Austin Critics Table Nomination, Acting in a Supporting Role (Nathan Osburn)
 

"...director Kate Eminger has guided her actors toward a similarly unstuffy approach...The result is a world within the play that may be less rigid than the one Ibsen described, but it's also not as far away from us."
-Austin Chronicle

"A full Five Stars. Palindrome has dug to the nerve and marrow to find the blood-red heart of the piece...in all its horrifying, heartbreaking glory."
-Austin Theatre Examiner
