Post Gazette: "Time is of the essence in 'The Clockmaker,' playwright Stephen Massicote's fast-paced play in which wit and wordplay, situation and setting, imagery and memory build to conclusions about ... well, all in good time.
Massicote, whose 'Mary's Wedding' was a highlight of City Theatre's season last year, kicks off 2010 for City with the U.S. premiere of 'The Clockmaker,' which won Canada's Betty Mitchell Award for best new play of 2009."

This play looks fascinating- the writing, dialogue, and mystery in it sounds fascinating. Besides attending a performance of The Clockmaker for the text, the article talks about some scenic and properties challenges that sound interesting. Clocks are one of the harder things to deal with in film or onstage, especially when they need to point to a certain time or change to different times throughout. In a show that sounds so based around clocks, I can't wait to see how they deal with this. I will make time to go down to the City Theater and see this production at some point in the next few weeks.
