Press Reviews

"…a rather smart and absorbing evening of water-cooler theater, the intimate sort of Off-Broadway experience that has you picking apart the recognizable characters long after the curtain calls.” —The New York Times. ”Off-Broadway keeps on presenting us with compelling reasons for going to the theater. The latest is SNAKEBIT, David Marshall Grant's smart new comic drama about being thirtysomething and losing one's way in life.“ —New York Daily News. ”David Marshall Grant's SNAKEBIT…grips like a boa constrictor with a great sense of humor…he has an extraordinarily acute ear for the way people talk and a shrewd, handsomely workable theatricality, without a whiff of literary greasepaint…Not to be willingly missed."
— New York Post
