DC Theater Arts - Highly Recommended

"...Props, tools, and toys (including a fine ice cream cart) add to the experience, as is easily seen by observing an audience of children rapt with attention and adults eager to find the fun. With wonderful singers, dancers and a brilliant storyline of seemingly unconnected moments which nevertheless connect, Elephant & Piggie's "We Are In a Play!", which was commissioned by and debuted at the Kennedy Center, provides audiences with a grand treat. The cast and production team at Adventure Theatre have done a fine job with Playwright Mo Willems' story. Go to Glen Echo Park and find the fun!"

DCTheatreScene - Highly Recommended

"...It’s easy to see why Elephant and Piggie’s “We are in a Play!” has become a staple of the TYA DC theater scene, with its initial commission from the Kennedy Center in 2013 and three other productions (including this one) in the area. First, they are based on 3-time Caldecott Honor recipient Mo Willems’ immensely popular Elephant and Piggie series, though previous knowledge of the books is unnecessary. Both the script and the production tell clear stories that reflect the concerns of preschoolers like the Shark while embracing their surprising complication. The rollicking songs and excellent comedic timing of the cast are cherries on top."

BroadwayWorld - Highly Recommended

"...Elephant & Piggie's "We Are in a Play" is one of those shows that has something for everyone. A first class cast, excellent production values, and great writing. I guess the latter shouldn't come as a surprise because Bookwriter/Lyricist Mo Willems based the show off of his very popular Elephant & Piggie book series."
