“A force of nature… a solid play about a dissolving world.” - Time Out NY

RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN

“Gutsy, incisive and sharp-toothed... A tense, engrossing legal thriller. The big question of the play, of course, is right there in the title. It’s hard to think of a question more salient at the present moment, or more worth your time when it comes to listening to what these artists have to say.” - The Chicago Tribune
