The Woolgatherer feat
"[Mastrosimone] has a knack for composing wildly humorous lines at the same time that he is able to penetrate people's hearts and dreams."
— Hollywood Reporter
"The bedrock beauty of these attracting opposites gives the play an unforced power; audiences watch it as if they’re part of it."
— Chicago Reader
"Beautifully written... a deceptively simple play about two people falling in love that becomes a nuanced and authentic character study."
— Conway [New Hampshire] Daily Sun
