“
Poignant and personal exploration of the foreclosure crisis in 2008, it's a compelling piece of writing that would work on stage or screen. ”

- Cheryl Bear:20 Jan. 2021“ A great reflection on our time as the American dream of owning a home being in upheaval has prompted the question of where we put our faith. Hope, resilience and the human spirit shines through! ”
- Jami Brandli:29 Aug. 2017“ Stephanie Alison Walker's American Home is a powerful and very important play about the 2008 housing crisis. Her wonderfully complex characters are challenged in a way that moves you, and, at times, makes you laugh. Just as important, amid all the harsh reality, Walker leaves us with a message of genuine hope while questions the American dream of being a home owner. ”
- E. M. Lewis:29 May. 2015“ I love this play. It's about everything Americans were promised in boom time, and the trust that was lost when everything went bust in the housing crisis. Real people, trying to cope with overwhelming situations. Read it! ”
- Brian James Polak:16 Mar. 2015“ Stephanie's play American Home is a beautifully theatrical exploration of the complicated notion of "the American Dream." I love how she takes seemingly disparate people to explore the challenges of living in a consumerist society with the debt piling up, up up. This is certainly a play for our time. ”
