Press Reviews

"A compelling, affecting and ultimately shattering play which explores the fate of a small-town family drawn inexorably into an explosive and tragic situation. “Playwright Julie Jensen once again uses middle America to illuminate the human condition.” —South Bend Tribune. “She writes pungent dialogue and creates flesh-and-blood characters…STRAY DOGS is often downright hilarious.” —Washington Post. “…a writer worth listening to, just for the texture and truth of her dialogue."
