We really enjoyed Tactile: fascinating concept of Futurist Food and the production itself was very well done and inventive. We particularly liked the interactive aspect of the play…and it was play!

Hmm … wanted to cast votes for some shows that aren’t listed; I’m assuming the voting is limited to those shows actually reviewed by DCTS.
For next year, it may make sense to allow voting for all of the shows, perhaps as write-ins.
DCTS can’t see everything, of course; but DCTS’ readership can.
