Washington City Paper says 'Never the Sinner' is "tricked up with some novel accoutrements to make the author’s dependence on explanatory footnotes palatable."
Metro Weekly says:
"Ashley Ivey... brilliantly shrinks into the role of the shy and studious Leopold. His portrayal is nicely complemented by Joe Brack as Loeb."
"What's most rewarding about the pair's performance is the chemistry they share. Ivey and Brack melt comfortably together with a familiarity that is absolutely convincing."

The Washington Blade calls 'Never the Sinner' "[a] rock-solid production" and " "two well-acted, imaginatively-staged acts."
