"...On a train rumbling eastward from Los Angeles in 1940, a young man in uniform invites himself to sit down next to a pretty young woman absorbed in her book. As it turns out, they are both from neighboring towns in Kentucky, and each is traveling home in the wake of life-altering disappointments. So begins the Washington Stage Guild’s entrancing new production of Arlene Hutton’s Last Train to Nibroc, a sweet and intimate love story that plays out against dramatic societal changes occasioned by a global war."

"...The actors have a comfortable rapport with each other and they both bring out the poetic cadence of the script which repeats phrases like a melodic refrain. Just when you think they might become a couple, one of the characters digs deep in old patterns of mistrust or misunderstanding and they back away, only to find themselves reconnected later on and then something else pops up. Only, each time they’ve shared a little more history and gotten a little closer, enough for the spiral of possibility to tighten around them to finally admit their mutual affection. The dynamic works because of the high caliber of all aspects of the production designers matched with the excellent performers."

"...If you like your theatre a little less splashy with stories that put you back to a kinder simpler time in this country, than the Washington Stage Guild's current production is definitely for you. Last Train to Nibroc, by Arlene Hutton, is a textbook study of what happens when you concentrate on using the acting to tell a story without bombarding your audience with a large production."
