A Chronicle of Folly, Wisdom, and Madness
Human life is brief, yet true knowledge is without end.


"Undermain Theatre isn't like any other performing group"

"In any other hands, its blend of metaphysics, science fiction and vaudeville would probably be impenetrable. Here, under Katherine Owens' direction, it's a marvel of theatrical wizardry"

"Without question... Undermain's production is as good as they come"
~ Lawson Taitte, The Dallas Morning News


"As the final moment ...wound down to a silent, "zen-ergized" finale on opening night November 14, I could feel most of the audience join me in a collective gasp, breath caught in sheer delight"

"The expansive panorama depicts the whole universe unfolding before your eyes, draws you in deeper and deeper...and deserves mounting in a museum or gallery once the play closes"

"Undermain's versatile acting ensemble is in fine form here, drops nary a line, misses no quintessential physical moment."
~ Alexandra Bonifield, Critical Rant and Rave


"a marvelous, funky, pop-culture collage"

"thanks to the Undermain, thanks to Len Jenkin's language, Port Twilight makes for a haunting, mind-altering experience"
~ Jerome Weeks, KERA, Art&Seek
