"Naked by the River" has deft wordplay by the playwright, Michael T. Folie, sizzling staging by Stewart Fisher, the director, and the sparring skills of Duncan M. Rogers as Tim and Stephanie Roy as Peggy. The audience is in expert hands."

"...what will surprise them is the chemistry between the couple. That's the hardest quality for a director and performers to capture, but, under Stewart Fisher's amiable direction, sparks fly between Roy and Rogers. Some theatergoers may be so convinced they're a couple, they'll search the program bios."

"Mr. Rogers eases comfortably into the role of the would-be idealist. The character must choose: About his book, he says he had a vision, "No", Peggy tells him, "You had an idea." It is to the actor's credit that Tim appears realistically torn between the two. He's a handsome devil too, which lends credibility to the romance between Tim and Peggy....It doesn't hurt one bit that it is acted so sublimely by Ms. Roy, so commendably by Mr. Rogers and so audaciously by Ms. Zazzi."
