Les Misérables
"The production is wonderfully staged by director Alexander Galant - who's managed to bring a fresh perspective on the material and put together a production which retains all of which you love, while bringing in enough originality to keep it from being a carbon copy of the original. "

You'll Get Used to It! The War Show
"Director Alexander Galant pulls no punches especially in the 2nd act where our stalwart squad members take and suffer blood. Utilizing two distinct rear projections, eliminates the need for sets or props; a few stenciled boxes & crates are all that’s required to portray battlegrounds, beds, or dining tables. The overhead newsreels are visceral reminders of what we saw with every movie feature."

Singin' in the Rain
"Alexander Galant succeeds in establishing the setting by paying homage to Hollywood with a film tribute during the Overture. That's right - a film. Galant is an accomplished short film director and showcases his remarkable talent through numerous film sequences during this entire theatre production."

Diary of Anne Frank
"But this is secondly a director’s play. Of this Alexander Galant is responsible for the stunning atmosphere that emits from the unsettling journey. He’s surprisingly successful at inculcating fear at every turn of the page employs a variety of sound effects to authenticate his every intuition as to what it was like for a family to live each day like it was their last."

Twelve Angry People (update of 12 Angry Men)
"Staged with the audience seated on two sides of the small playing area, Galant seems to have gone beyond the script guides, allowing the 12 jurors to move away from their chairs around the oblong table. We, the audience, are unacknowledged visitors to this jury room. No scenic device gives evidence of the room's decor or design, just the theatre's play black walls. So the onus rests even more heavily on the players to hold our attention. And hold it they did."
