"Alexi Kaye Campbell's play is such a tremendously rich and uplifting new work... Joe Mantello's graceful production boasts an excellent cast. Ben Whishaw and Hugh Dancy craft masterfully shaded dual roles, alternating the body language of the two periods quite confidently. No less effective is Andrea Riseborough playing both a woman trapped in a sham marriage and another on the cusp of true love. And Adam James hits delightful comic grace notes."
