“Funny … The production glides confidently from silly to wry, from the pratfall to the riposte … Suave Christopher Innvar and tart Veanne Cox [are] polished comic actors who seem as smart as the words they utter.”
Peter Marks, The Washington Post
“Perfectly enchanting … It's quick, funny and still capable of taking a swipe or two at convention. Cox is, not to put too fine a point on it, intoxicating.”
Trey Graham, Washington City Paper
“Delicious … The incomparable Nancy Robinette plays Lady Bountiful with maniacal glee.”
Leslie Milk, The Washingtonian
“A delightful romp … A sparklingly funny evening that, under the superb direction of Michael Kahn, plays very well indeed. Innvar is often hilarious.”
Brad Hathaway, Potomac Stages
“A great cast … One of the best nights you'll spend in the theater.”
Grace Cavalieri, The Montserrat Review
“Sheer laugh-out-loud fun … Farquhar, Wilder and Ludwig all had such a good time skewering the institution of marriage … that laughter is the only possible reaction. Kahn has put together a superb production.”
Lucia Anderson, The Free Lance-Star
“Funny is funny! Cox is pure delight. Robinette is exquisite. ”
Margaret Lawrence, Culpeper Star-Exponent
“A sparkling production … The dialogue crackles, the characters engage the audience's interest and sympathy, and the whole thing seems almost effortless.”
Susan Berlin, TalkinBroadway.com
“Irresistible … A delightful holiday gift.”
Marilou Donahue, Artistically Speaking
“The Beaux Stratagem's satirical portrayal of marriage and courtship is disarmingly charming and witty. One of Shakespeare Theatre's finest performances to date.”
Natalie Koss, On Tap
“Laugh-out-loud comedy … In this strong cast, Veanne Cox is a standout.”
Barbara Greiling, Potomac News
“A romp … with a very funny script and a lively production.”
David Cannon, Sentinel Newspaper
