Press Reviews
"No one in New York writes dialogue quite like Grimm…[He] effervesces so violently that he achieves liftoff, fizzing out of the Land of the Pleasantly Dirty Farce and landing on Planet Experimental Theater…A magical mystery tour of Grimm's brain…a comedian with empathy.“ —Variety. ”Daring, imaginative, smartly sardonic, flamboyant in a feverishly compulsive way.“ —Village Voice. ”The play is a palpable expression of love for the theatre…it utterly enchants.“ —New York Sun. ”What makes Grimm's rendering memorable is how he invites us to the shipwreck of a writer's life to watch as, amongst the debris, stinging moments of clarity float up, bursting—as they must—just when you reach out to them."
