Trevor: Hugely entertaining tragicomedy... the genius of [ Joness] play is how he has so cleverly humanized both characters. Chicago Sun Times
The Lilys Revenge:
offers so many incidental pleasures that theatrical time always a curiously malleable element seems to contract. New York Times
A Map of Virtue: With a Hitchcockian sensibility, [ Courtney] makes psychodrama out of the mystery of what keeps people together even as imaginations and egos push them apart. Like a souvenir from a fleeting dream, this play will pass over you painlessly, and then it will linger. Backstage
