Review: THE FOREIGNER at As If Theatre
THE FOREIGNER at As If Theatre provides a farcical romp of entertainment while yet managing to deliver a poignant message on racism and fear of others that remains as relevant today as when Shue wrote it forty years ago.

THE FOREIGNER engages the mind, lifts the spirits, and soothes the soul.
