A DeLUSIONAL Affair Reviews
Broadway World- Recommended
"...Santa Monica Playhouse presents the funny, touching, and just a little bit racy, world premiere comedy, Albert James Kallis's A DeLUSIONAL Affair which will make you question everything you ever thought you knew about love, marriage, fantasy and reality, leaving you with a new perspective on it all. The play centers around a married couple celebrating their 25th Anniversary, with a husband eager to celebrate with his wife while she is so engrossed writing a book that she cannot be bothered to pay much attention to him, other than on the fantasy pages of her book."
LA Splash- Highly Recommended
"...A DELUSIONAL AFFAIR is a side-splittingly funny tale about marriage, reality, fantasy, and what follows "happily ever after." Kallis explores these questions and more with delicious detail which may seem very much like – and maybe very much different – from what most couples experience when the empty nest looms. The intimate study carefully lifts layer upon layer of a marriage – with keen psychological insight and hysterical results."
The Tolucan Times- Recommended
"...A DeLUSIONAL Affair takes place on the 25th wedding anniversary of Julia and Oliver Foxx. Julia (Rachel Galper) has done her time. Relishing the empty nest, she seeks self-fulfillment and has an advance toward writing a novel. Oliver (Gregg Berger) always successful and always right, balks at Julia's reviewing of their marriage contract while he negotiates the lucrative sale of his company."
Theatre Notes- Recommended
"...Smart direction by Chris DeCarlo keeps the pace crisp and the emotions true. The production is handsomely mounted in Santa Monica Playhouse's snug, delightful main stage, with sets and lights by James Cooper, costumes by Ashley Hayes, and sound design by The Attic Room."
