Press Reviews

"A biting, brilliantly inventive black comedy, which marked the debut of a young writer of unique talent and theatrical flair. The play focuses on the self-satisfied America of the 1950s, and the darkly comic personal vicissitudes of an embittered young veteran who returns from Korea (minus an arm) to face the problems of finding a job and saving his marriage. “…a macabre journey through that [American] mainstream, told in deadpan, cold-bloodedly ghoulish, comic style.” —The New York Times. ”Keith Reddin's play belongs to a vigorous American tradition of broad, black, bitter fantastic-satiric comedy…“ —Village Voice. ”…there are many funny lines and surprising moments."

— The New Yorker
