"Walter Bobbie’s production is first-rate. David Zinn’s inspired set design with its rotating backdrop allows for quick scene changes. The cast is outstanding. Eddie Kaye Thomas and Will Rogers are both impressively understated. Jonathan Groff and Rutina Wesley deliver powerhouse performances."
– Roma Torre, NY1
"A top-notch staging smoothly directed by Walter Bobbie and convincingly acted by an excellent quartet of young pros. David Zinn’s scenic design is efficiently functional and subtly witty. And the script is carefully structured, building elegantly from light to heavy as the plot progresses and tension mounts, and it offers smart, punchy dialogue, while raising provocative questions. The actor and playwright Jeff Talbott has delivered a serious drama about a hot-button political topic"
– Jesse Oxfeld, The New York Observer
"In his first New York City outing, actor-turned-playwright Jeff Talbott concocts a rather ingenious, far-fetched, but built-for-laughs premise. Jonathan Groff is completely winning in every way.
Rutina Wesley is sharp and funny."
– Melissa Rose Bernardo, Entertainment Weekly
"Walter Bobbie directs some of most savage arguments seen on stage
since August: Osage County and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? He has also instilled in his cast a fearlessness, an ability to act without a net."
– Mark Kennedy, Associated Press
