Press Reviews
"…Foote fans and scholars will find much resonance in a poignant and haunting drama about the sadness, depression and regret that come with growing older…like most of Foote's later plays, this is a multi-layered work with such rich characters that they continue to haunt the mind after the final curtain.“ —Variety. ”To pinpoint the center of Foote's genius is difficult. His characters are certainly so real that we feel immediately that we know them. But with any one of his plays we quickly become aware that our knowledge has been superficial, of the surface only, that these characters have depths we not only didn't know but never even suspected…VERNON EARLY has few equals and no superiors in its ability to engross the theatergoer."
