Synopsis

A smart, tense and suspenseful new take on Stevenson's look at the evil that lurks in the hearts of men...Hatcher has fashioned a play that seems truer to Stevenson but hipper, sexier and more intense...a suspense almost as affecting as it is intense.

--San

Press Reviews

"This deft two-person drama nicely captures what it's like for a writer to be inspired and intimidated at the same time…KLONSKY is not another story about the decline of a famous poet so much as an uplifting one about the evolution of an unknown writer.“ —The New York Times. ”A literate, sophisticated couple…portrays vividly the agonies and joys of the relationship…Delmore Schwartz's words lie refulgent in their lucid mystery.“ —Village Voice. ”His text, while gliding with polished professionalism, has a subtle but glowing heart…the play successfully puts poetry centerstage.“ —Backstage. ”Linney has succeeded remarkably in interweaving Schwartz's moving poetry with his own lines…“ —New York Theatre Scene. ”A roller-coaster ride…the experience was thrilling.“ —The Star-Ledger (NJ). ”Crackles with zest and wit…filled with surprises and calling for virtuoso acting.“ —Syracuse New York Post Standard. ”KLONSKY AND SCHWARTZ is stunning theatre."
