"Mr. Bogosian is a hilarious wit: there is one line after another that you will quote to friends. He is a born storyteller with perfect pitch for the voices of various ethnic, racial and economic backgrounds. Using every powerful means available to a theatre artist, he shakes the cages of a complacent country engulfed by homelessness to ask just exactly who, if anyone, is home." -Frank Rich,
New York Times
"Greatly and bilaterally talented... spiky, stinging, caustic without cauterizing. And funny." -John Simon,
New York Magazine
"Scabrously funny... a dervish of a performer, ricocheting off the walls of the male psyche." -
Boston Phoenix
