The best new play in many a season. There are heady, farcical peaks to this comedy that approach the manic genius of Preston Sturges. But Mr. Norris' real target is that great sentimental sham, the idealized American family. -NY Observer. "One of the most satisfying theatrical events available today.Norris writes with a mind that is attuned to the blindness that passes for a shared vision among the emotionally smug and upwardly mobile." -The New Yorker.

"A smashing new satire.Norris' uncompromising, cagily crafted cockfight all but leaves blood on the stage." -Time Out Chicago. "Playgoers hungry for smart, vicious drama will feel like an itch has been scratched." -Time Out NY.
