First produced on Broadway in 1989 and inspiring an Academy Award-nominated film of the same name, Aaron Sorkin’s A Few Good Men tells the story of military lawyers at a court-martial who uncover a high-level conspiracy in the course of defending their clients, two United States Marines accused of murder . Based on events that took place at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in July 1986, A Few Good Men is a riveting courtroom drama that investigates both the nature of our military mentality and the Marine code of honor.
Advisory Warning: Recommended for mature audiences. Contains profanity, violence, and adult situations.
The Washington Post Review
“Brianna Letourneau is suitably brisk and compassionate as Lt. Cmdr. Joanne Galloway… Michael Innocenti can be quite funny as Lt. j.g. Sam Weinberg, their gloomy, overtired colleague.”
DC Theatre Scene Review
“Rhea’s performance undercuts Jessep’s machismo with a sense of insecurity that makes you wonder what he thinks of himself, and of the orders he gives, and of the people who follow them.”
Washington City Paper Review
“Jeremy Skidmore’s new production for Keegan Theatre has a physical kineticism to match its author’s impressive (and self-impressed) verbal brio. The show runs nearly three hours with intermission…Yet it never lags.”
Broadway World Review
“As defense co-council Weinberg, Keegan member Michael Innocenti lightens the proceedings when needed, while Bradley Foster Smith is convincing as prosecutor Capt. Jack Ross.”
DC Metro Theater Arts Review
“…what makes this performance truly special Jeremy Skidmore’s relentlessly engaging and artistically engaging direction. Skidmore’s non-literal stagings felt unquestionably authentic and amplified the stoic atmosphere.”
Clare Art Beat Review
“The company, under director Jeremy Skidmore, treated patrons in Glór to an engrossing show staged with (ahem) military precision.”
