I am having a blast playing Dana, Mordred and a host of other characters in Guerrilla Shakespeare Project’s The Tragedy of King Arthur!
Here are a couple of things that the reviewers have had to say about my performance:
“Hankins is a force of nature, passion exploding as she moves from Mordred in King Arthur to present-day Arthur’s sister.” - Beatrice Williams-Rude, nystagereview.com
“The parallels are reinforced by doubling: Dana, the superb Sarah Hankins, plays the impish malefactor Mordred, Prince of Picts who questions the bastard Arthur’s legitimacy-- just as she disputes his claim to the play in the will....
The ensemble of seven, under the expert direction of Jordan Reeves, get to play from the peak of their classical range to the colloquial median--and they excel at both.” - nytheatre.com review by PJ Grisar
“Sarah Hankins, as Arthur's sister Dana, possesses plenty of spunk and conveys the passionate nature of an aspiring actress. Hankins becomes more than a foil to the protagonist but acts as a catalyst to the action here, enabling Arthur to come to terms with their family's complicated past and to accept his doubts about the text of The Tragedy of Arthur.” - Deirdre Donovan, Curtain Up
