"Sandy York (Ariel) gave...the sensitivity and range needed to make Shakespeare's enchanting language come alive."
OOBR.COM, Jonathan Shandell
"The second-act wedding celebration, during which Prospero and his spirit servant Ariel (the acrobatic Sandy York, her
movements cleverly echoed by auxiliary nymphs Megan Bienstock and Sarah Scott) summon up three singing goddesses, is
beautifully costumed and beautifully sung."
THEATERMANIA.COM, Ben Winters
THE TEMPEST "…where the audience is transported to a magical world where they quickly forget that they're only a few
feet from 42nd Street traffic. That's only one of the many impressive things about this impressive production. ……Alexa Kelly
and her cast's efforts have paid off well. Pulse Ensemble Theatre's production of THE TEMPEST is a perfect late summer
evening's entertainment. On a clear, dry, summer evening--which were the conditions when I attended--you can't beat it.
CATCH IT WHILE YOU CAN."
NYTHEATRE.COM REVIEW, Michael Criscuolo
THE TEMPEST "In a lovely intimate courtyard space--with an effective set by Roger Hanna, lighting by Zhanna Gurvich,
costumes by Terry Leong, and intoxicating original music by Joseph Pehrson, incorporating bells, wind-chimes and gongs, we
are transported from the heart of Hell's Kitchen to a magical island. …Alexa Kelly has assembled and directed a wonderful
ensemble with a delicate hand. The entire production is a joy and wonder with spirit, purpose and humor."
