Press
"The breathtaking immediacy of this play is jolting, moving, and exciting ... the emotions that are exposed here are so raw and personal that proximity enhances the experience hugely. These glimpses we get into three human souls at their most desperate are searing and incisive: truth is revealed in bold, concentrated strokes here. Reitz's writing is terrific; this is a play that you want to see and hear again a day later (at least that's how I felt), both to savor its gems and to contemplate its sudden profundities."
