“…whimsical…[Pierce] is not just satirizing small town America, with its hopeless reinvention schemes and hapless part-time politicians.

“CARDINAL, Greg Pierce’s…take on urban decay and gentrification, offers a breezy but no less pointed version of the tragedy and melodrama in plays like Bruce Norris’
Clybourne Park and Lynn Nottage’s
Sweat…[It] also offers…juicy roles in the push-me, pull-you vein of romantic comedies like
Northern Exposure. A dark vein of cynicism churns Pierce’s blood, however…For most of the evening, it’s tough love with a cackle.” —Deadline.
