Press Reviews

"Mr. Koutoukas, a camp classicist as playwright, has written a breezy, nonstop near-monologue. The play is strewn with philosophical asides... funny... Though undoubtedly the play is more amusing in performance than on paper, one should not overlook the limberness of the writing."
— The New York Times

"Quirkily... reflects the main currents of American life as if in a funhouse mirror."
— Village Voice
