Published Reviews

"A very funny, very smart play, filled with surprises."

NYTheatre.com

"Fresh, startling and wickedly well-crafted. The best of the evening."

Los Angeles Times

"A clever comedy."

Bruce Weber, The New York Times

"A vivid cat-and-mouse meeting between two strangers in a bar. Wingfield knows how to build suspense."

Michael Kuchwara, Associated Press

"With the precision of a skilled surgeon, Wingfield cuts right to the center of each character's neuroses as he attempts to navigate the treacherous waters of dating life. The highlight of the production."

Variety

"Wingfield's writing keep you unaware of what's coming up. For any actor who wants to understand different tactics to get what you want, this is the play to watch."
