FICTION is a well crafted script which should be appreciated by people who enjoy good acting and literate dialogue.  I’d class it as a “go see” for those who can forsake lots of pseudo-drama or escapist comedy.

Fiction is a wonderful wordsmith’s mystery, full of eloquent dialogue that peels away at the truth bit by bit.  This intriguing play, tautly directed by MaryJo Alexander at Actors’ Summit, is full of tension as it explores the line between truth and fiction for two authors, who are husband and wife. 

Dietz's elegantly written play toys with our minds, keeping us constantly guessing.

Where does truth end and fiction begin in a writer's life?
It's a question playwright Steven Dietz posits and explores in "Fiction," a beguiling and clever comedy-drama about writers and writing and how an author's real life becomes gristmill for his art.  


This play holds out numerous rewards for the attentive listener, with special appeal to those of the writing profession, including this reviewer.

My granny always told me, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." But if I lived by those wise words, I wouldn't be a critic -- and I wouldn't have a thing to say about "Fiction," now onstage at Actors' Summit in Akron.
