"Blessing has a hair-trigger sensitivity to what families are saying and doing now, this minute…" — Dallas Times Herald

"Mr. Blessing writes admirably well timed and weighted dialogue, and the play takes the cleverly invented charactes through to a chilling end." — Plays and Players (England)

"…a delicate balance of comic and tragic elements." — Louisville News American
