Press Quotes
The critics on Laura Eason’s plays:
THE COAST OF CHICAGO: “What a lovely, haunting surprise. THE COAST OF CHICAGO turns out to be a poetic, emotionally vivid … portrait of the artist as a young man.” —Chicago Sun-Times
“I am thrilled to report that Eason’s translation to the stage is brilliant … a tight, riveting show … Four stars (out of four).” —Daily Herald
“A beautiful piece …” —W B E Z, Chicago Public Radio
IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER: “… beautifully imagined and realized … the brief hour of BEHOLDER packs in a lot more than a dozen productions elsewhere … a haunting hour of striking imagery, tantalizing role-playing and indelible artistry worth savoring long after the final black out.” —Chicago Tribune
“Laura Eason’s mini-masterwork … a must-see revival.” —Chicago Sun-Times
“… rich, resonant, endlessly inventive … daring intelligent and brilliantly executed.” —New City
