“Play Date is a new step in theatrical evolution — a serio-comic farce. It is funny, certainly, but also rich, deep and even poignant. All of these characters provide compelling insights into how parenthood changes people. It is definitely worth seeing.”
—Jennifer Georgia, DC METRO THEATER ARTS
“This show is genuinely funny. We need more laughs—and these were laughs of the best kind: Play Date skewers pretensions, misapprehensions, and the insularity of people, but it never skewers the humans trying to find their footing and purpose.”
—Mary Ann Johnson, MD THEATRE GUIDE
“FOUR STARS!”
—Debbie Minter Jackson, DC THEATRE SCENE
“Playwright John Morogiello is a newly emerging master of short plays, and his farce Play Date delivers a fun time for any audience."
—Telly Halkias, THE MANCHESTER JOURNAL
