"HUGHIE"
by Eugene O'Neill
"Directed at a nearly-mesmerizing pace that lingers just long
enough on each point to let the full flavor steep without seeming ever to have an artificial pause. Once the show
gets underway, the magic of live performance and artistry takes over and casts its spell. It makes you want more."

"LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT"
by Eugene O'Neill
"A spectacle that draws the
audience in and holds it tight. As theatre it can be riveting. The brain becomes activated and engaged as O'Neill's autobiographical masterpiece takes shape and the depth
of his personal anguish envelops you like the Long Island Sound fog his characters love. This production manages to steadily
build until time seems to be going faster the longer the portrait continues to manifest itself -- a not insignificant achievement."
Michael Toscano
The Washington Post
"An impressive evening of theatre. The entire cast is simply superb. They cast O'Neill's magic spell and (have been) guided into an ensemble effort of
note. The pace is just right. The
material is rich enough and fascinating enough to keep the audience engrossed. It
works."

"A MOON FOR THE MISBEGOTTEN"
by Eugene O'Neill
"The nonstop, roundabout banter
becomes both seance and exorcism. It delivers rich rewards to those who pay close
attention and get a glimpse into the human heart. Exudes an energetic, emotional
honesty (and) a satisfying resolution that packs a wallop."

"THE KILLER ANGELS"
adapted from Michael Shaara's Pulitzer
Prize winning Civil War novel of the 3
day Battle of Gettysburg
by Karen Tarjan
the
Washington, D.C. area premiere
"A
sweeping historical drama and compelling story. Those who enjoy military history will appreciate the human chess game as thousands
of troops are moved about in anticipation of what the other side's actions will be. Students of American History will
enjoy seeing the groundwork laid for the battle's political ramifications. The story takes hold dramatically. Ambitious. Energetic.
Does it work? A qualified 'yes!' "
