Press Reviews

"Hip and smart! A fresh new voice."
— The Daily News

"One of the best and most emotionally satisfying works this season. Superb!"
— Theatermania

"Marvelous. A gem of a debut. Ms. Flahive's language is almost always naturalistic, often sounding throwaway, and yet every line contributes to a growing impression of a living, breathing family."
— The New York Sun
