At Round House Theatre, an issue play elevated by two D.C. greats
Thank goodness for Holly Twyford and Kate Eastwood Norris. D.C. has been spoiled in recent months with back-to-back double bills starring the long-reigning MVPs of area stages. They were excellent last fall as reluctant friends who slipped into an easy rhythm, then drifted apart, in David Auburn's 'Summer, 1976' at Studio Theatre. Now, they're playing stubborn antagonists facing off at Round House Theatre, on opposing sides of a heated and timely argument.
