Press Reviews

"This suspenseful drama features what might be the most provocative student-teacher relationship since David Mamet's Oleanna…beautifully melds hardheaded cynicism with the fleeting thrill of a crush.“ —Time Out New York. ”There is something warm and delighting in the relationship between the two men, as if Don Quixote were passing along his Quixoticness to the next generation.“ —The New York Times. ”A marvelous, yummy play.“ —New York Post. ”Juicy roles for three actors.“ —Playbill. ”Great theatre."
