Press Reviews

"CRADLE AND ALL is a smart, pitch-perfect play that is a cut-to-the-bone look at how babies can expose secrets their parents want hidden. With evident humor, Goldfarb has churned up all those little things that drive couples crazy. The play often feels so true that it becomes universal.” —Associated Press. “Daniel Goldfarb insightfully lampoons the instincts of contemporary urban parents.” —The New York Times. “CRADLE rocks!” —amNewYork. “Thoughtful, amusing and shrewd, with characters that surprise you and deepen.” —New York Daily News. “A daring and engaging evening. Utterly natural and emotionally true. Daniel Goldfarb has an insightful grasp on the way people in a relationship behave.” —The Record (NJ). “An excellent showcase and a sure bet to entertain audiences.” —Backstage. “Engaging and perceptive."
