Press Reviews

"Told in a series of short scenes, this play is by turns darkly funny and malevolent; the story of a man who will stop at nothing in his pursuit of his dream and the Big Score. “SEARCH AND DESTROY is a very adventurous play by a very talented young dramatist…” —The New York Times. ”It'll keep you on the edge of your seat.

— The New Yorker
