Recommendations of A THING OF BEAUTY

  • Donald Loftus: A THING OF BEAUTY

    A sparkling and incisive comedy, A Thing of Beauty delivers sharp satire on art, class, and censorship with dazzling wit. D.W. Gregory’s dialogue crackles with precision, blending farce and social critique as egos collide over taste and morality. The characters are vividly drawn and delightfully absurd, driving a fast-paced, cleverly constructed plot that is both hilarious and pointed. A thoroughly entertaining and smart theatrical romp.

  • Paul Donnelly: A THING OF BEAUTY

    A delicious farce poking pointed fun at art world pretensions! The comedy arises beautifully from a mix of character and situation. It would be a real treat to see this piece on its feet.

  • Lainie Vansant: A THING OF BEAUTY

    This goofy romp is a great example of 21st century farce (a surprisingly difficult thing to pull off) with parts for actors of all ages. It's a hoot and a half -- check it out!

  • Audrey Cefaly: A THING OF BEAUTY

    I was lucky enough to see this play at Appalachian Festival of Plays and Playwrights in 2023. It was the hit of the festival. No one does comedy like DW. Dry, concise, biting humor, incisive commentary, and a wonderful gem of a play that resonates so fully in this moment. It's the perfect evening of theater.

  • Cheryl Bear: A THING OF BEAUTY

    A brilliant piece about censorship and artistic expression. Who will be the winner in this completion? Well done.
