While the subject matter explored in this
play is weighty and disturbing, this production is a remarkably engaging and
brilliantly orchestrated series of images.
And it is surprisingly buoyant thanks to superb performers who have
mastered the playwright’s complex wordplay and found the dark humor in the
deepest recesses of this intriguing work.

IN A WORD is one of the top area presentations
of this season. Anyone who is
interested in well written, compelling scripts, directed and performed in an
almost not-to-be-believed level of brilliance, has to see IN A WORD. A standing ovation doesn’t even give
the necessary praise this piece of theatrical wonderment deserves.
Mark Horning
This work needs to be seen more as a psychological
thriller rather than a dark comedy. From
the very first line, the tension is set and gradually ratcheted up to the point
of nearly unbearable suspense. For fans
who like their theater with a jolt of electricity, this is your show. Bring a friend.

Fiona's quiet, climactic scene with a Kit Kat bar is, given its context, perhaps the
most trenchant human interaction with chocolate since Willy Wonka boffed the
Swiss Miss on the Cocoa Cruiser ride at Hershey Park.
