2023: The John Aniello award for outstanding emerging theatre company

muffed

April/May 2025
Helen Hayes Awards Recommended Production
DC Theater Arts - Julian Oquendo
Prologue Theatre’s simply enjoyable ‘Muffed’ is extraordinary
   "This witty and fun show and its fantastic ensemble cast deliver jokes at a breakneck pace." 
   "Prologue has . . . gone ahead and delivered the most enjoyable evening of theater I’ve had in 2025."

​MD Theatre Guide - Anne Valentino
Theatre Review: “The Meaningful Action Theatre Company Presents a Workshop Reading Of ‘Muffed: a Recounting Of Farmington, Maine’s 43rd Annual Chester Greenwood Day Devised By the Members Of The Meaningful Action Theatre Company'” at Prologue Theatre
  "…laugh-out-loud…absolutely explodes the limits of creativity. What a show!"
  "The meta vibe is off the wall here and the results are side-splitting."

Broadway World DC - Rachael F. Goldberg
Review: MUFFED at Prologue Theatre
    "Sometimes, art is evocative – it holds a mirror up to our lives and our society, helping us explore deeper truths. Sometimes, it’s entertaining – like junk food for your mind and soul. And sometimes, when you’re lucky, it’s both."
    "Prologue Theatre’s latest production, joyously, manages to be both fun and thought-provoking"

December 2024
Helen Hayes Awards Recommended Production

DC Theater Arts - Debbie Minter Jackson
A young marriage unravels in Prologue Theatre’s ‘The Horse and Carriage’
   "I can’t think of a better time to explore the emotional queries and potential new conversations presented in The Horse and Carriage than now."

MD Theatre Guide - Jeannette Mulherin
Theatre Review: ‘The Horse and Carriage’ at Prologue Theatre
  "The Horse and Carriage features witty dialogue, relatable characters, and plenty of fodder for conversation. When Jasper and Adelaide wrap up their evening on the town, the audience is left to consider the unpredictable nature of life, our choices, and the paths not taken."

BroadwayWorld.com - Jackson Malmgren
Review: THE HORSE AND CARRIAGE at Prologue Theatre
  "​Kari Ginsburg is firm but stalwart in her portrayal of Adelaide. Jacob Yeh is easygoing yet emotionally nuanced in his portrayal of Jasper. Jonathan Feuer’s Waiter serves an essential role in the performance and he fills his role as both a narrator and host artfully. All performers know how their characters act and react in given situations and it is reflective in the body language- which plays a key element in reflecting how the conversation is being received."
