Proof That Virginia Woolf Did Have a Light Side
This production turns Virginia Woolf’s only play into a light comic lark played as if it were a laugh riot.

Review: Freshwater
You really had to be there -- at a country house in 1935, when the era's Olympian elites, the Bloomsbury group, performed Virginia Woolf's one and only play, "Freshwater," for their private amusement. ... While helmer Anne Bogart deftly conveys the sophomoric glee behind the original giddy enterprise, the over-bright and over-brash production puts a certain Yankee spin on the Brits' intellectual antics.

Freshwater reviewed by Adam R. Perlman [critics pick]
Christopher Durang, Steve Martin, Virginia Woolf: It's not a grouping you'd make, unless you were assigning place settings for a licentious, time-warping dinner party.

Review: Freshwater
