the most gifted writers ever to work on the American stage." --Marsha
Norman

writers." --John Lahr

delivers, he executes feats of dexterity and technical difficulty that
an untrained person could not, and makes them seem easy." --Michael
Feingold, The Village Voice
"One of the most original, prolific, and gifted dramatists at work
today." --The New Yorker

the English-speaking world." --Charles R. Bachman, Modern Drama
