Review by Liz Kimberlin on April 20, 2008

Theatre For a New Audience’s Antony and Cleopatra succeeds mostly as visual spectacle. It is truly a sumptuous delight to look at, from the intriguing sliding-panel set replete with an onstage pool, to the lavishly colorful costumes, to the absolutely gorgeous and talented people who populate the play. There’s also some wonderful staging, especially in terms of light and sound design in the battle scenes, as well as the occasional fate-altering supernatural visit from an immortal or two.
