Press Quotes
“Jim Grimsley’s play is so steeped in mysticism that he could be either a burning zealot or a hard-core atheist. In this speculative fable, a tourist’s casual remarks at a Jerusalem fruit market land him before the local authorities. His interrogator, Paul, insists that he was once personally acquainted with the man, J., leading the two to wage a battle for the truth — or at least the last word.” —Mary Shen Barnidge, Chicago Reader
