Stay tuned for my next project!
Coriolanus - Shakespeare in the Park 2019
"But more than any Shakespeare in the Park offering of recent years, 'Coriolanus' combines insight and showmanship with a clarity that makes you forget you're listening to Elizabethan English." Ben Brantley, NY Times
Hamlet - 2017
"This Hamlet focuses on the family tensions and lightning changes of mood, rather than the struggle for dominance...the complexity and poetry of the play take hold and build throughout the performance." Sophia Howes, DC Metro
Sense & Sensibility - 2017
"Aquila’s productions are beautifully spoken, dramatically revealing and crystalline in effect." - The New Yorker
Julius Caesar - Shakespeare in the Park 2017
"Anyone who reads the plays knows Shakespeare’s main message is that no matter how much you want to get rid of your current political leader, don’t kill him."
Marilyn Stasio, Variety
"Even given its rough satirical edge, the pleasures and the faults of this production lie not in the stars but in ourselves: It’s a staging for this age, if not the ages."

Our Trojan War - 2017
"La Marr's Odysseus (a "god-like" mortal) is a captivating presence as well, with the charisma and tenderness that reminds one of Viggo Mortensen’s Aragorn, except chattier, which is useful when it comes to complimenting princess Nausikaa until the Phaiakian royals agree to help the shipwrecked king of Ithaca."

Basetrack Live - National Tour 2014 - '15
"Mr. La Marr and Ms. Bloom give engaging, natural performances, so that while AJ and Melissa tell their stories in retrospect, they still have a sharp immediacy."
Charles Isherwood, New York Times
"La Marr, a former Marine sergeant who served two tours in Iraq, had an open-faced directness, a physical vitality, and tremendous integrity."
Jordan Levin, Miami Herald
"This extraordinary production explored the impact of war on both the men who fight it and the families they return to."
Charles Isherwood's Best Theater of 2014, New York Times
“'Basetrack Live' is gritty, emotional, engaging and most of all, hopeful."
Logan Herrington, The Daily Texan
