Press Reviews
"EVOLUTION, a fast-paced, sharply written morality tale by Jonathan Marc Sherman, puts a fresh, funny spin on the subject.” —New York Daily News. ”[A] fresh and heady whiplash of a social satire…[Sherman] writes really smart fun with breathless abandon…Sherman intends Henry's morality tale to teach the importance of knowing what we want. Mission accomplished. We want more plays from Sherman.“ —Newsday (NY). ”Articulate and generationally savvy playwright…ironic humor and pop culture mindset…educated wit of his satirical style…Candide-like quest for purpose and direction…Sherman sends up this familiar material with irreverent originality…Sherman's mock-heroic version has a decidedly fresh feel to it."
