“A new adaptation of John Gay’s 1728 satire The Beggar’s Opera ... Several supporting performances stand out ... Christopher Bannow and Rob Kellogg valiantly dive elbow-first into David Brimmer’s fight choreography as a pair of old-timey boxers. Everyone keeps up with a staging that could easily double as an eccentric gym routine.”
