Great acting, Absorbing, Ambitious

See it if into a 2-hander: a couple in a Paris hotel room; loving and fighting while trying to connect their story to Diana and Dodi's.

Don't see it if well - the story is not without holes, and the middle feels a little repetitive.

Good acting, Schematic, Disappointing, Uninvolving

See it if You like good acting.

Don't see it if You're seeking a play where you care about the characters, or the topics of the play are illuminated in some way.

Ambitious, Clever, Absorbing

See it if You're curious about Dodi Fayed and what may have happened that night he and Diana died. If you enjoy intense, sexy two-handers.

Don't see it if You like neat plots, large casts, or light-frothy comedies.

Edgy, Great acting, Absorbing, Entertaining, Ambitious

See it if You like intense, well-acted two handers that are both naturalistic and theatrical.

Sexy, Intense, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if You're into: both realism and surrealism, astrology, thought-provoking conversation around sense of self in relationships

Don't see it if You don't like two-handers or intimate dialogue-driven plays

The New York Times
October 12th, 2022

"Any parallel between the play’s two couples is forced, though. One relationship is intrinsically compelling, even in this imagined version of it, while the other has too little heft to hold our interest."

The Observer
October 26th, 2022

"The dialogues and scenes are equally well-paced and the different costume changes reaffirms the centrality of appearances in this stiffly oppressive decorum that takes us sharply down to the figurative bowels of human feelings."

Theatermania

"The stage only ignites during the final scene, when they are forced to confront what they have avoided for the previous 90 minutes of the play...'Dodi & Diana' is a needed corrective to a sexist fairytale."
