Reviews continue to roll in for The Blank Theatre Co.’s production of Lobster Alice. Here’s an excerpt from CurtainUp.com’s review:
Daniel Henning’s direction takes its cue from that “Madcap” headline without becoming manic. He leads John Finch, played with stolid lunacy by Nicholas Brendon, off the straight and narrow down this particular rabbit hole, with bright careful attention to Obolensky’s themes and darts.
Here’s a taste of what Backstage.com had to say:
Nicholas Brendon plays Finch, growing in intensity: disbelief, frustration, agonizing jealousy. Noah Wyle is Dalí, making the well-known real-life figure as fervid as history and rumor tell us he was. Brendon and Wyle are cartoonish, yes, but in the best ways: vibrating with energy, colorful, zanily exaggerated.
Have you seen the play? If so, drop by the NickBrendon.com Forums and tell us what you thought! And don’t forget to check out our ongoing Break a Leg Project in the forums!

Los Angeles CityBeat has a story up about The Blank Theatre Co. There’s a brief, but positive mention of The Blank’s current production, Lobster Alice:
It’s a crackling production, replete with sharply hewn performances. Nicholas Brendon plays the Disney animator assigned to the Dali project even as he also works on Disney’s Alice in Wonderland. Dorie Barton portrays the animator’s restless assistant Alice, who’s an inspiration to both her boss and Dali. In alternately seducing and bellowing tones, former ER star Noah Wyle (who’s also the Blank’s “artistic producer” and sometime benefactor) has a field day as Dali. His celebrity should generate extra business at the box office.
And in other news, the Philadelphia Daily News has an item today confirming that Nick’s ABC Family movie, Relative Chaos will debut Sept. 4.

Lobster Alice has received a trio of positive reviews! Here’s what Variety had to say about Nicholas in particular:
Brendon is a mass of barely contained nerve endings as the animator who must deal with Dali while simultaneously guiding the destiny of Disney’s current project, “Alice in Wonderland.” He makes believable Finch’s eventual emotional explosion, driven by overwork, Dali’s chaotic creative process and the realization that Alice could be the missed opportunity of his life.
Check out what the Los Angeles Times and DailyBreeze.com thought of the production, as well!
If you’d like to check the play out yourself, you can still purchase tickets through TheBlank.com.
