Press Quotes
“Lynne Alvarez is an enchantress. Her plays unfurl like flying carpets — the joy, the daring, the loop, the loops … prepare yourself for an exhilarating flight.” —Tina Howe, playwright
“The plays of Lynne Alvarez possess a poetry and eerie quietude that is unique in our dramatic literature.” —Mac Wellman, playwright
“In her magical and mysterious plays, Alvarez creates characters filled with longing, imagination and an outrageous sense of humor. Her highly theatrical landscapes invite us into a world where towers rise up, people flee their pasts, love appears around surprising corners and the poet in all of us is reborn. Alvarez has a unique and joyful voice that celebrates the complexities of the American experience in all its diverse and startling incarnations. This collection is a major achievement by one of the best kept secrets of the American Theater.” —Carey Perloff, Artistic Director, American Conservatory Theatre
