Press Quotes

“WILLISTON by Adam Seidel is a fresh piece of theatre that successfully shines a light on the power of greed and money in modern day America. Three leasing reps travel to Williston, North Dakota to get mineral rights to the last big piece of undeveloped land … I was thoroughly impressed with the play … a story that is relevant and fresh.” —Brian Stanczak-Tuscany, Broadway World

“Something’s not quite right in the small town of Williston, North Dakota. That much is obvious just from the fact that oil company deal closers Barb and Larry are expected to share quarters in a trailer camp setting. And how is it that their parent company didn’t let them know that they were sending a new numbers guy, Tom, to bring in the lease on one of the largest and possibly most productive tracts of land? After all, the killer team of Barb and Larry has been working for years on ‘Indian Jim,’ the Native American holdout who is reluctant to allow drilling on his land. Playwright Adam Seidel crafts a nifty three-hander where everything and everyone is not as it seems.” —Lauren Yarger, theaterlife.com
