Riveting, Intense, Relevant, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if It’s a well written and performed play, similar to Ordinary People, where we unfold the complexity of the characters and subject matter.

Don't see it if It’s not a comedy, and it’s very good. Don’t see it if you just want to laugh all night. There is no reason not to see it.

Major kudos to the young playwright, Intense and moving, Powerful, riveting and disturbing, Great writing, acting and staging

See it if a poignant, engrossing, very well written, acted and staged family drama about anorexia interests you.

Don't see it if the topic of anorexia triggers you; you don’t like family dramas. This isn’t a light-hearted night @ the theater, but it’s a worthwhile one. Read more

The New York Times

CRITIC’S PICK "Home Is No Haven in ‘Rinse, Repeat.’ In Domenica Feraud’s potent drama, hard-driving parents don’t recognize the examples they set for a daughter with anorexia."

"'Rinse, Repeat': An Important Story Buried in Hackneyed Theater Tropes. Domenica Feraud's play about eating disorders lacks the substance to sustain it."

“Domenica Feraud's ‘RINSE, REPEAT’ Explores The Cycle of Habits That Trigger Eating Disorders.”

"A difficult subject, of the sort that requires the most sensitive handling, gets surprisingly lively dramatic treatment by a first-time playwright in 'Rinse, Repeat'…What could have been a clinical exercise or dreary informational pamphlet is a classic-style family drama packed with scenes that percolate with tension."

"Unfortunately, 'Rinse, Repeat' does not nearly rise to the level of a classic. It is, however, a good play with a fair share of melodramatic reveals, and it is centered on an important issue. In short, this is a Eugene O'Neill family drama presented as a Lifetime Original Movie."

"Domenica Feraud has written and plays the main character Rachel in 'Rinse, Repeat' at Signature Theater Center. The story is about eating disorders and family dynamics as the family quibbles with each other on Rachel's test weekend home after spending 4 months at a facility to help rein in the problem...the story needs better focus."
