Reviews

Chicago Tribune

B.J. Jones’ earnest, moving and unpretentious production will, I suspect, be a very big hit for this savvy and growing company, where more and more Chicagoans have come, with reason, to trust the power, truth and integrity of the work.

Directed by BJ Jones, TimeLine Theatre’s staging of the piece is a triumph of fine directing and deftly etched performances over a script that loses most of its story-telling momentum in the second act.
