"Head Over Heels plays like a joyful act of defiance as director Allison Arkell Stockman oversees a rollicking celebration of gender fluidity and queer identity."
"As Musidorus, the lovesick shepherd newly tapping into his femininity, Harrison Smith finds humor in self-discovery."
"Stockman's up-for-anything cast ensures there's not a weak link in the production, showcasing a vibrancy that's both entertaining and thought-provoking."
"Billed as Constellation's final show at 14th Street's Source Theatre, 'Head Over Heels' has turned into an impromptu send-off from a beloved venue."
This spring, the D.C. areaâs theater scene showcases a variety of inventive performances, including a reimagining of Shakespeare and a musical by the Go-Go's. Notably, Constellation Theatre's 'Head Over Heels' stands out as a celebration of gender fluidity and queer identity amid escalating restrictions on transgender rights. Director Allison Arkell Stockman leads a vibrant cast in this 2018 Broadway musical adapted from a 16th-century romance while featuring hits from the groundbreaking all-female band. This show signifies an impromptu farewell to Constellationâs performance space at Source Theatre, as the company faces closure.
