The Washington Post
"persuasive performances and intelligent direction... "
"Mark Rhea's Stanley Kowalski is riveting ...  persuasive performances and intelligent direction by Eric Lucas and Mark A. Rhea make for a largely gratifying three hours ... Susan Marie Rhea and Mark Rhea are plausible and engaging as Stella and Stanley Kowalski...  you can sense their almost narcotic connection ... both actors maintain a charged presence...  Eric Lucas fidgets and stammers appropriately as Mitch ...  As Blanche's tragedy unfolds, jazzed up by whiffs of moody piano music, you usually can sense the surging sexual tensions, and the power struggles, between the characters.  ... Shadia Hafiz's costumes emphasize personality and hint at class conflict...  George Lucas's street-and-tenement set ... boasts some expressive features ... Dan Martin's lighting galvanizes this tableau with sultry color... Williams's hothouse flower of a drama is more sturdy than one might suspect...."
