“smoking hot...a riveting world premiere”
“The Honey Trap is one of the finest productions of the year... I am so impressed by the chic execution of every detail of this production — you don’t often see dramas with this high level of artistry here in DC. ”
“The Honey Trap is one of the best plays of the 2023-2024 DMV season. It is just November and there are many more productions to come, but this world premiere is that good.”
“brilliantly illuminates postwar realities and the search for closure...keeps viewers begging for more right until the stage lights go out, all while simultaneously peeling back layers of an extremely nuanced historical conflict. ”
