Press Reviews

"This richly imaginative and probing play explores the problems created for himself—and others—when a down-on-his-luck New York theatre director is invited to teach and direct at a small midwestern college. ”It's an original work that's also the genuine article, a drama of solid craft and sensitive artistry…“ —Chicago Tribune. ”Sweet has an uncanny knack for dialogue that unobtrusively leads you into his characters. TIES is a must-see."
