Overall, this show is highly recommended. Folger doesn't employ gimmicks, but does justice to the material at a time when state governments across our globe are struggling with territorial disputes, the realities of political leadership, and the forces of socio-political change not unlike the ones presented in this play.

Washington Stage Guild deserves accolades for putting on this play that packs a powerful punch. This company, although it may fly under the radar in terms of public attention, should not be underestimated. 'Tryst' offers one of the best theatergoing experiences I've had in recent months.

When exceptional actors deliver an equally strong script, the end result is usually a ‘must-see' theatrical production. This is certainly the case with the Studio 2nd Stage production of 'Contractions.'

Overall, 'Irving Berlin's White Christmas' is a step above your average holiday fare. Even if it left me wanting more, one does have to appreciate the music and dancing talent involved and any show which features Berlin's classic tunes is worthy of attention.

This fairly innocuous take on a classic tale is likely to be a hit with audiences seeking a fun night out.

Studio Theatre's production of Annie Baker's 'The Aliens' is, despite the fine acting and production values, unsatisfying.
