Published Reviews

"Ms. Hutchinson has a sharp ear for dialogue...and shows clearly the web of prejudice and hostility woven by peers and parents."

The New York Times

"...a fast-paced, poignant, often funny work..."

Time Out New York

"A richly-textured drama, woven with threads of meticulously crafted sound composition and articulate comedy..."

Examiner.com

"Hutchinson creates a world alienating and familiar, sexual and violent, with high energy and tension."

Backstage

"This isn't a 'gay play.' It's more or less a traditional (and often quite funny) story about growing up, finding first love, and experiencing the pain and despair of young adulthood."

Blogcritics

"...the rare 'important' play that counts as a joy to watch -- funny and engaging as well as thoughtful."
