Press Quotes
“You know what it’s like when everybody in the family gets sick at the same time? Nobody’s able to make soup, or Jello, and somebody’s always in the bathroom when you really need to go, and nobody can seem to be nice to anybody for very long, even when everybody’s sympathetic? OTHER PEOPLE’S HAPPINESS is a little like that. It’s a well made play about a tightly knit family of four who all come down with relationship flu at the same time … Like a New Yorker cartoonist, playwright Adam Seidel has a fine sense of economy. He ably builds people we recognize, and circumstances we know too well, with only a few scribbles and scrawls.” —Chris Davis, Memphis Flyer
“Well-drawn characters making their points effectively, leaving you with some good, hard questions to consider.” —Austin McLellan, Broadway World
