Reviews & Photos for Widows

Ever relevant and impeccably worthy.  Mr. Dorfman is among the most politically engaged playwrights and novelists of the last few decades....charged, often harrowing.
Charles Isherwood, NY Times

Heartbreaking and tragic, the play is a poignant reminder of the atrocities that often go unnoticed in the world.  Director Hal Brooks has done an expert job with a strong 18-member cast in this Reverie Productions show.

Dorfman and the folks at Reverie want this, I think, to be a call to action. Complacency—taking ideas like justice and mercy for granted—is dangerous. It's useful—essential!—to be shaken up a bit by as powerfully disturbing a drama as this one.

For a political play, Widows digs remarkably deep...Hal Brooks directs the play like a river itself...The action flows quickly from scene to scene, bubbling up every now and then into a most magnificent Greek chorus of rapids, a babble of insistent voices that break our hearts upon the rocks.
