Press Quotes
“Rain pours down and thunder echoes throughout Jim Grimsley’s surreal suburban drama … Helen and Gordon Hammond, a successful, married couple who have moved from Atlanta to an out-of-the-way home, abutted by cornfields and trees — and, within view of their windows, a ‘shack,’ in Gordon’s words, a run-down house kept, barely, by a couple about whom they know very little and Gordon, at least, thinks of equally little. Helen’s persistence in standing in front of the bay windows — the spark for an argument that reveals how the couple’s happiness itself is a form of décor to match their lovely living room — permits her to spy a figure running across the field separating their home from their peculiar neighbors’; and when that figure turns up at their door, wet and bruised, the drama begins properly.” —Steve Shapiro, KC Metropolis (Kansas City)
