TOBIAS DORIAN uncertified reviewer August 26, 2026
I spent last Sunday afternoon wandering through an open-air craft market, completely underestimating how quickly the breeze would pick up once the sun went behind the clouds. My light autumn blouse was doing absolutely zero work against the draft, and I ended up wrapping a thin scarf around my arms the entire time just to stop shivering, which ruined the whole relaxed vibe of the outing.... full review

Hilarious and riveting - I loved every detail of these two people, as they waited for everything to happen in this space, whether it was the cockball filling the toilet, or the next order arriving in the ingeniously-designed dumbwaiter. Abrams and Grollman are an amazing pair and the piece was one little joy after another. ... full review

Love this show. I'm embarrassed to say I have never seen a Pinter play but I'm glad this was the first one I saw. Wonderful production with 2 immensely talented actors. Phil Abrams and Jim Grollman had such great chemistry and perfect timing. After the play i was thinking about how magical theater is when you can have 2 talented actors in an almost bare stage and they make you believe that you are in that basement. Highly recommend.... full review

So VERY enjoyable, the pacing was perfect, the slapstick hilarious. 2 veteran, incredibly likeable actors, one naive and childlike, one the alpha male who we depend on to navigate the existential crisis. And one dumb waiter that isn’t so dumb. BEAUTIFULLY DONE, don’t miss it!... full review

PAUL HOAN ZEIDLER certified reviewer June 17, 2026
This adaptation of Harold Pinter's THE DUMB WAITER stirs up a brisk cocktail of tension, disturbing noises, mystery, alienation, absurdity and comedy, garnished with a chilly wedge of menace. Phil Abrams and Jim Grollman ace their roles as two contract thugs simmering with frustration in a claustrophobic apartment that seems to fight them every moment. Pinter's classic is a challenging play to mount, but, in DWNYC, Abrams and Grollman have created a stage work greater than the sum of its angry, funny and agitating parts.... full review

This show is excellent! Do yourself a favor and go see some veteran LA actors tear it up. So focused, so invested, fascinating to watch. 😌✨... full review

It's Pinter meets Dog Day Afternoon with Abrams and Grollman as Sonny and Sal. Loved it. Want to see it again. ... full review
