What I liked

Three Can Keep a Secret is a fun, deadly neo-noir romp filled with people you’d avoid on the street but love to watch on stage. The interactive conceit is used to good effect. Director Jacob Smith mines every bit of humor in this script, keeping the pace sprightly. An enjoyable hour spent with actors who are clearly having a ball.

What I didn't like

With Studio Stage’s wide playing area, it’s nearly impossible to not have someone see air in the fight sequences.

My overall impression

Three Can Keep a Secret is a fun, deadly neo-noir romp filled with people you’d avoid on the street but love to watch on stage. The interactive conceit is used to good effect. Director Jacob Smith mines every bit of humor in this script, keeping the pace sprightly. An enjoyable hour spent with actors who are clearly having a ball.
