Reviews
"Ms. Ruhl is one of the most gifted American playwrights... Her imagination is among the most adventurous at play today in the theater."
- Charles Isherwood, New York Times
“This new play is a subversive enchantment. It is part absurd domestic seriocomedy, part erotic magic realism, unflinching about taboos and about questioning that, just maybe, monogamy isn’t enough.”
- Linda Winer, Newsday
