Robin Guy

Phantom Crew, a new Celtic ghost song show co-created by multi-talented performers and life partners Robin Guy and Scott Richardson, plays at The Gladstone this month.

Brian Carroll: “While the script starts out slowly, the more I think about this production of The Secrets of Primrose Square, the more impressed I am with it.”

Brian Carroll: “This is a finely balanced and executed ensemble performance of a 1990s classic.”

Nell Gwynn is playing at The Gladstone Theatre until June 8.

Barb Popel: “Fine performances from four talented actors… A polished production.”

Director Teri Loretto-Valentik has made only small modifications to the script, so simply listening to this production with eyes closed is similar to the experience of […]
