Press Quotes
“EIGHT DAYS (BACKWARDS) is a breezy, psychologically precise and pleasantly dizzying ninety-minute set of interlocking New York sketches about power, relationships and the unknowable agonies of fate. Jeremy Dobrish, who usually writes for his own adobe theater company, has created a series of light but sharply observed snapshots that, as the title says, work backward over eight days in the lives of eighteen casually and/or intimately related character … this is a summer show-jaunty and clever enough to hit a few truths with impressive economy and a sense of possibility. The characters have a range of class and age and, ultimately, we care enough about them to wish we could wan their future selves about what we know is ahead.” —Linda Winer, Newsday
