"Life X 3 was first seen in 2003 at the Circle in the Square. This revival is tauter and funnier. Perhaps this smaller venue refracts the play in a different way, but these four actors are more convincingly real."
- Joel Benjamin, TheaterScene.net
"Life x3 is a thrilling way to spend an evening!"
- Theresa Basile, Manhattan with a Twist

"Dominic Comperatore, Leah Curney, Claire Curtis-Ward and James Patrick Nelson take this microcosm of a world and extend it to the audience in such a way, that we find ourselves unusually compelled by how these characters' lives can turn out for the better."
- Kristen Morale, Broadway World
"The production is handsome and thought provoking, the actors brilliantly professional."
- Jan Ewing, Hi! Drama

About the Play
​
Henri and Sonia are putting their son to bed when Hubert and Ines arrive for dinner, a day earlier than expected ... As the evening degenerates, Yasmina Reza's play - elegantly translated by Christopher Hampton - blends cruel observations with high comedy in an hilarious and poignant examination of our most personal intimacies and private longings. We see three versions of the same socially hapless evening in which the characters change subtly each time, providing a dramatically different outcome for each.
