Funny, witty, and charming performance! I particularly enjoyed the fast paced dialogue. Quick one-liners are interwoven with clever puns that take a few seconds to digest. For a dialogue-heavy play about humor and wit, it's going to live or die based on the actors' abilities to portray the wordsmiths they are playing. The cast of Algonquin absolutely delivers on that front. The banter between Jack Beck and Dorothy Parker is the highlight of the show, and you'll get plenty of it.... full review

Its a love story between a young wanna-be writer and a sweet-natured waitress, set at the hotel where famous journalistic wits gathered to dine publicly in the 1920's. I expected to witness the brilliant repartee of that famous celebrated group of New York City writers, critics, actors, and wits who dined and sparkled at the Algonquin. Sadly, they were depicted as a mean-spirited group who were deliberately cruel to a naive out-of-towner with literary aspirations. ... full review

Came to see some some of my favorite Jazz Age wits exchange barbs, was treated to the turning point in a hero journey for a young writer. All the actors' performances were nuanced but remained sharp, not falling for the lamentable predilection to drop every bit of writing to the lowest common denominator or make the characters blandly "nice"; particularly Alexander Woolcott (played with beautifully acerbic poison by Steve Brock) and Dorothy Parker (appropriately excoriating while still vulnerable) for this feat I tip my hat not only to the actors, but to the director, Dig Wayne and the writer, Steven Vlasak. The costumes and great piano music and Black-Bottom dance tickled my ever-lovin' flapper heart. ... full review

Perfect location, great script, terrific cast, and a great "twist"! Wonderful interpretations of some of literature's finest by the talented cast (I'm a big fan of Sweet Ol' Bob)! ... full review

Very fun ride giving a peek back to the 20s where the famed and funny hung out to eat, drink, and slice one another like a salami in a never-ending battle of wits. Wonderfully written piece by Steven Vlasak in which he’s able to weave a story of a young writer hoping to get discovered by the group with the actual wit of the real-life personas and then blended with his own. Three Clubs is a great setting for this play as the action takes place in the private area of a restaurant at a grand hotel - couldn’t have been better. Nice acting all around, especially Roz Stanley as Dorothy Parker who inhabited the character inside and out as Parker’s mind was rattled with booze, lust, and endless one-liners which she used deftly to defend her spot ato... full review

Step back into the 1920's in New York City and enjoy 80 minutes of sparkling and acerbic wit. Nights At The Algonquin Round Table is engagingly well-written and well-directed. A talented cast, delivering fast-paced dialogue with humor, bring to life some of the elite literary figures of the era. The depiction of the era with the spot-on characterizations and costumes transported me back to the time of the Algonquin Round Table. Did this encounter really happen or is it a plausible fiction created as a vehicle for the brilliant interplay of personalities? It works either way. If you are at all interested in the early 20th century, in its lore, writing and mystique, this play is a must see! Go and enjoy!... full review
