Press Reviews

"This deeply felt and engrossing work marked the emergence of an important new playwright. Set in a North Carolina mill town, the play focuses on the estrangement of a struggling young actor who returns home to be with his dying mother. ”…his play is exquisitely written, some of the surest writing I've come across in a new play for some time.” —Women's Wear Daily. “…thoughtful and sensitive probing of the human condition.” —Christian Science Monitor. “…he has created a play of outstanding quality, merit, and promise of important future works."

— Scriptwriter Magazine
