Published Reviews

"It's a stunningly successful collaboration of first-rate writing, acting, and directing that could serve as the gold standard for what the genre can accomplish."

"Falling Up...was probably the freshest, most charming offering, with the most striking use of language..."

Channing Gray, Providence Journal
