"InterAct challenges stereotypes on and off the
wrestling mats
in
a boisterous new production ...
[a] dynamic new play ... blisteringly paced,
razor sharp production ...
Both funny and smart, Entrance is the rare play that makes us laugh and think at the same time."
-J. Cooper Robb, Philadelphia Weekly
"... Quite a
departure for InterAct in staging and feel,
but
playwright
Kristoffer
Diaz's ideas are right up their alley. ... sobers you up even as you're laughing. ...
fabulously entertaining and all-out fun ...
How to explain how it sparkles? Playwright Kristoffer Diaz's
creation
is a skillful mix of wrestling posturing,
pizzazz and vulgarity. Allegory
dressed up in non-stop,
hilarious, tasteless, brilliant commentary."
-Kathryn Osenlund, CurtainUp.com
"Juan Pacheco is brilliant ... Shalin Agarwal is outrageously magnetic ...
a fine production ...
good storytelling"
-M. Cofta, Philadelphia City Paper
