critics and audiences **ravED** about live action theatre's debut...
the continuing adventures of john blade, super spy!
"From the very moment (the) house opens...to the curtain call, LAT (Live Action Theatre) comes through on its promise to create theater that 'injects high-octane action directly into the audience experience'." - DC Metro Theater Arts
"...a smart, knowing, affectionate parody of action movies..." with "...really, really well-executed, dangerous looking fights." - Fringe & PurgeCast #13
"The dynamics amongst these characters are fun to watch, and you can tell the actors are enjoying every second of it as the audience laughs uproariously at their antics. The fights constantly change styles and weaponry, keeping the audience engaged and entertained with hand-to-hand combat, swords, guns, and knives galore." - DC Theatre Scene
"The jokes—so many jokes—pack even more of a punch than the, uh, kicks." - Washington City Paper Hip Shot
