“Zibart’s play is elegant and deeply philosophical, as she gracefully weaves Dostoyevsky’s words with her own, probing ideas that claw at the extremes of human experience, and question the nature of the sacred and the profane within our lives….To pose these questions so directly within a work of fiction without resorting to lecturing or preachiness is remarkable. The characters grapple with these weighty ideas about our existence and relationship with God. The questions arise as both try in their own ways to relate to each other and to the world…without resorting to preachiness is remarkable.” (Alibi)

“Ms. Zibart’s writing is honest; poetic at times and raw at others…The script has been winning awards, and rightfully so. It is beautifully crafted and emotionally mature.” (Broadway World)
