A dynamic, multi-layered and courageous central performance from Angela Morris is just one reason to head up Milwaukee Avenue to Gift Theatre for the world premiere of “Cygnus..”
“This is [Morris’] show and her performance pulses with life and unpredictability. As you might guess from “Succession,” Stanton is a verbose kind of writer and Morris spits out this rich and poetic language with pace and fortitude and yet enough vulnerability that you don’t just believe in the character she is playing, you pull for her….”
“Especially with a starring role this attractive to performers, there’s no question this play will have a future. I doubt any subsequent production will feature a performance exceeding this one in Chicago right now.“
[Maddy,] as skillfully played by Angela Morris, this well-off, self-enfranchised college coed, has a lot more going on, just beneath the surface, than the audience realizes. When Ms. Morris finally lets loose and faces off against Sharlene, we see a talented actress at the top of her game.”
[Fr]esh, funny, spirited and graceful … starring … Angela Morris, in a sleeper role that stole the show as the Winnetka native Maddy, who is overwhelmed … searching for succor, yet ultimately a survivor.”
In the play’s world premiere at the Goodman, director Erica Weiss delivers a ruggedly affectionate production that is made special by a superb young cast.… In the following scenes—which introduce[s] … Sam’s friend Maddy (Angela Morris, who lights up the stage with her livewire anxiousness)—Gilman widens her canvas to touch on larger issues.”
Director Erica Weiss’ staging is laced with deep veins of empathy and humor, and the six actors imbue their performances with layers of nuance. … Maddy, deliciously played by Angela Morris, is a Winnetka native who expects people to be impressed when she mentions she graduated from New Trier.”
The Obituary Writer is the protagonist of Death by Dying, but Charlotte, played by Angela Morris, is one of the most standout characters. Direct, sharp, but still emotional, Charlotte takes that feeling of goofy randomness and turns it into something more tangible, something worth analyzing. It’s Charlotte who makes the stakes of the story feel genuine, turning a once-silly, somewhat fluffy show into something earnestly dramatic and even, at times, terrifying.”
Featuring … Angela Morris as the fascinating and multi-layered Margarie, who is determinedly fixated on self-transcendence….”
Jess McLeod[‘s] … production contains some standout performances (Morris in particular)….”
