My Child
Mike Bartlett

“…Myatt excels at using small details to evoke larger truths.… JOHN IS A FATHER explore[s] fatherhood, mortality, the post-recession economy and the illusory nature of the American dream… In impeccably spare dialogue rarely longer than single-sentence exchanges, fragments of John’s troubled past come to light during his encounters on a trip to reconnect with what’s left of his estranged family.… It’s utterly compelling naturalism rendered with economy and grace….
Myatt’s new play offers a quiet vision of hard-won hope amid adversity.…”Philip Brandes, Los Angeles Times
