Michael Dirda

Michael Dirda is an American writer and literary critic known for his work in the field of literature and his contributions to The Washington Post.


"To my mind, 'Dear Brutus' stands halfway between Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's 'Into the Woods'. Like them, it is a play about enchantment and disillusion, dreams and reality."
