HARTFORD COURANT - Review by Christopher Arnott
“The extravagant manner in which TheaterWorks has dressed up this simple little play really helps deliver its message of how even a tenuous friendship can help overcome adversity. Duplicating the giant scale of the cab of a garbage truck helps frame one of the most fraught moments of the drama when a driver gets distracted. Showing the vast back of the truck, with Danny tediously explaining all the potential dangers of tossing trash indiscriminately into its gaping maw, makes you appreciate the work Danny and Marlowe are doing”
STRATFORD CRIER
“Marcelo Martinez Garcia deserves props as set designer for providing a very realistic garbage truck on stage. Both the cab and the back end loader are perfectly realized here and it is nothing short of impressive.”
