“Feldman has a hilarious offhand air, and he’s so natural that he seems to have wondered in from another play.” Elizabeth Maupin, Orlando Sentinel (March 10, 1994, p. E3)

In 1983, Elizabeth Maupin became the theater critic at the Orlando Sentinel. Now, more than 26 years later, she is leaving her job to pursue other dreams.

In honor of her final day on the job, Brian Feldman (who appeared in 10 productions reviewed by Betsey) will read selected reviews she has written for the Sentinel (from April 4, 1985* - February 26, 2010). This eight hour event will be webcast on brianfeldman.com, Qik, Vokle and Livestream. You can also watch clips on YouTube.

If there is a specific review of Betsey’s you would like Brian to read, please send your request with the name and dates of production (please include company name) to: projects@brianfeldman.com (or @BrianFeldman on Twitter, #Maupin).

If your request is from November 17, 1983 - April 3, 1985, please submit more than 26 hours in advance, as this will require a special trip to Orlando Public Library to look up the review on microfilm. (You will be billed 50¢.)
