Another high point in Manbites Dog Theater’s 22 years of bold theater… Under Jeff Storer’s masterly direction, and in the hands of four of the Triangle’s most talented actors, The Receptionist turns on a pinhead from office comedy to national nightmare.
-- Kate Dobbs Ariail, CVNC.org, full review

Surprising secrets and twists… Adam Bock's chilly comedy, The Receptionist, provides thought-provoking commentary on what is kept out of the public eye and how those in charge keep it that way.
-- Roy C. Dicks, News & Observer, full review

A hilarious, unnerving experience… builds to a chilling climax.
-- Zack Smith, The Independent, full review

Audience Response:
…See four of Durham's finest actors in this play… Marcia Edmundson is superb in the title role and Derrick Ivey, Carl Martin and Katja Hill are seasoned pros who do a great job, too. Lots of laughs and a little intrigue too. Two thumbs up…
-- Dan R., on the Duke Park listserv
