This theater company is the best kept secret in DC. Hidden in the tunnels of Crystal City resides easily one of the best performing arts companies in the metro area. Synetic have proven time and time again that fine art does not have to be boring or stodgy, and can be absolutely electric, alive, and often sexy. That plays without a single word spoken can make for incredible theater. Between their composer bringing cutting edge music live that ranges from classical to experimental, and the beautiful and often surreal sets and costumes, nothing disappoints. However, what really stands out is the extremely expressive mix of dance and acting from this company. This is easily one of the best companies in the US. A hidden jewel in the DC metro area. I have seen Romeo and Juliet, and Jekyl and Hyde. Both were awe inspiring.

What a wonderful theater I discovered a year ago! I watched King Lear and many other performances produced by the Synetic Theater Co. and was absolutely stunned by deeply expressive way and originality of their performance. Those were ones of the most impressive plays Ive ever seen in my life. From the very first show Ive tried to see all of their performances and was impressed with all of them. Id like to encourage all theater fans to pay close attention to this company. Such innovation and creativity should be appreciated more by the public who loves Theater. GO and see for yourself or you will be missing something VERY VERY TALENTED. Thank you Synetic Theater!!! And BRAVO!!!!

Very compelling performance of The man in the iron mask. Was a little unusual for this place as there was lots of talking but some scenes were silent. The show was the afternoon following the Orlando shooting and the co-owner delivered an emotional plea for their usual post- show donation collections (theater is run by donations) to be directed to the victims and families instead.

First off let me state this was my first visit. I went to see the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Excellent play, though if you are looking for dialogue dont go. They use music, lighting, and action to tell the story. There were a couple of grunts during the fight scenes but that was about it. Nice place and just a few minutes from the crystal City metro stop.

Absolutely amazing experience! I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to have an amazing and unique experience in the district! I saw The Three Musketeers and The Picture of Dorian Gray and both blew my mind.
