 "…Mr. Inge (author of Picnic) has put together an uproarious comedy that never strays from the truth."NY Times "William Inge should be a great comfort to all of us…he brings to the theatre a kind of warm-hearted compassion, creative vigor, freshness of approach and appreciation of average humanity that can be wonderfully touching and stimulating." --NY Post
