THE STORY: The conflict between the established artist and the adulatory fan who becomes a protégé, disciple, colleague and friend--and finally threatening rival--is one of those great topics...It resurfaces in Donald Margulies's provocative new play,
"With his fine ear for detail, Margulies creates an authentic, insular world, and he gives equal weight to the opposing viewpoints of two formidable characters."
— Los Angeles Times
"Margulies’ best play to date."
— New York Post
"As usual, Margulies holds the rich ore of his material up to the light so that it sends beams in every direction… always fluid and lively, the play is thick with ideas, like a stockpot of good stew."
— Village Voice
