“ Trash is such a perceptive play, both about the charming man at its center, who repeatedly takes advantage of young people, and about the teenagers who are initially drawn to him. Mulley somehow manages to tell the story in a way that is simultaneously deeply uncomfortable and impossible to turn away from. Maybe part of it is the elegant structure, with simple, precisely crafted scenes for two actors building to an emotionally savage climax. ”

“ This is a very assured writer. The play takes on a timely topic and approaches it with understated intensity. The dialogue is crisp and economical, and the characters come to life through subtle moment-to-moment interaction. It's a great vehicle for actors. ”

“ Everybody's encountered a teacher like this (if they aren't that teacher themselves - if that's you, log off this website and go get some help). Mulley does an excellent job depicting his rationalizations, his petty frustrations, and his charms - right up until the point where his amorality, and the damage he's left in his wake, can no longer be denied. ”

“ Phenomenal example of how serial abusers in positions of power exploit their status over and over again. Each new relationship between Dan and one of his students is unique and yet exactly the same without ever feeling repetitive. Easy to produce and sure to give audiences a lot to talk about on their way home, TRASH is the perfect play for any small to mid-sized theater looking for a production to round out their season while giving opportunities to young women wanting to express their frustration in our current social climate. ”
