Pascal & Julien Reviews
LA Splash- Recommended
"...PASCAL AND JULIEN painlessly and with good humor delves into some pretty heavy stuff. It will definitely appeal to audiences who enjoy the “je ne sais quoi” of French productions, those who enjoy a well-written and acted show, and individuals who enjoy issues of family, friendship, and personal change."
Stage Scene LA- Highly Recommended
"...A boy in search of a father. A man who wants nothing more than to be left alone with his crossword puzzles. A year of unexpected changes in both their lives. This is Daniel Keene's Pascal and Julien, the magical U.S. Premiere from the 24th Street Theatre."
Stage Raw- Recommended
"...In Pascal & Julien, Australian playwright Daniel Keene’s 45-minute confection of a play set in the streets of Paris, a 12-year-old boy, Julien (Darby Winn, alternating with Jude Schwartz) pursues a relationship with a stranger, Pascal (Paul Turbiak) who frequents a café across from where Julien resides with his family. Headstrong and determined, Julien has decided that he wishes to adopt the seemingly solitary Pascal as his father, since his own dad, a bank employee, is distant, ungiving, and unappreciative of Julien’s nature and inclinations."
