Barb Popel: “Witty word play. That’s what I expected from accomplished playwright and actor Pierre Brault, and that’s what I got in his second play about Will Somers.”

“For the last week we have been talking non-stop about how excited we were to get to see this show on stage and couldn’t wait for opening night.”

Barb Popel: “Plosive Production’s The Ugly One is a fine start to The Gladstone’s theatre season. It has an interesting script, an excellent cast, and good direction.”

Barb Popel: “This local gem deserves to be seen!”

Brian Carroll: “Lewd, sexy, ribald, hilariously funny, richly entertaining and bold!”

The Gladstone is guaranteed to be one of the busiest venues in Ottawa next season.

Barb Popel: “Dief the Chief… is Pierre Brault’s best work as a playwright.”

Brian Carroll: “King Lear is often looked on as a bravura vehicle for the lead actor. But don’t just keep your eyes on Howarth. There are other estimable performances in this production.”
