Wayside Volpone Review Finds Bitter Lemon in 1930s Costumes
Middletown critic Boldly questions Wayside Theatre production of Ben Jonson’s Volpone. The review argues the 17th century play should be heard and watched in period language and costuming, not updated with 1930s cabaret style. The plot centers on Volpone deceiving allies Corbaccio Volture and Corvino to gain wealth and Celia.

Volpone at Wayside garners praise for performances and set
Mosca and Volpone scheme through a trial scene while Celia and Bonario survive as the only innocent pair. James Kirkland and Carolyn Hurlburt lead strong acting with a striking Jack Stewart set and Paige Southard costumes though some period-accuracy issues appear in the wardrobe.
