Synopsis
“GOMPERS is Rapp’s most emotional and powerful work to date, and its beautifully forged characters pack a significant emotional punch and live with the viewer well after the final curtain.
GOMPERS…is a work with palpable heart and authenticity.”Chris Jones, Variety “Adam Rapp’s unconventional characters flood the stage with such immediacy and simple authority that it’s nearly impossible to ignore them or not care about them.”Alice Carter, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review “Rapp revels in the seamy side of humanity and, while digging around in that milieu, unearths a richly textured poetic prose style.
The vibe I got was Elmer Rice’s STREET SCENE populated by characters from Eric Bogosian’s SUBURBIA.”Ted Hoover, Pittsburgh City Paper ”Fiercely comic.”Christopher Rawson, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
