Overview
- Pasadena Playhouse announced a February 11–March 8, 2026 production directed by Darko Tresnjak, with Jefferson Mays as Salieri and Sam Clemmett as Mozart.
- Steppenwolf’s Chicago staging is now playing through late January 2026 in the Ensemble Theatre.
- Reviews commend Ian Barford’s Salieri and David Darrow’s Mozart, noting muscular direction that sustains the play’s psychological intensity.
- Critics highlight the in-the-round configuration with Todd Rosenthal’s set and Amanda Gladu’s period costumes as key strengths.
- The Steppenwolf notices cite dated portrayals of women and suggest modest trimming of the nearly three-hour runtime.
