REVIEWS

"What the theatre is all about. . . . A gut experience . . . tense, unnerving, unexpected. . . . It is a play to see." - New York Post

"A stunning, haunting play that breaks your heart just before intermission and then skewers it with an ice pick in the second act. The toxic effect of Mr. Sawyer's beautifully written five character play is eerily numbing in its flow of quiet wisdom, pathos and savagery. In the first act after a few lines and five minutes we are thrust into deep anguish and loneliness. In the second act, our playwright does it again with hair raising creditability - as the bachelor in Naomi Court, a decent aging homosexual, makes the mistake of his life. Naomi Court is a thriller that will thrill you and your audience." - The New York Times
