    “ This sucker punch of a coming out story reveals in its clever structure myriad levels of fear and, alternatively, strength that can emerge from this difficult situation. Mr. Simpatico heightens the terror of possibility--not only for the son, but for the father as well. A really smart and challenging play for any company looking to produce LGBTQ stories. ”

    “ Saw this last night at the Funhouse! What an emotional journey filled with such raw pain and imagery throughout. Such a great play to see on stage and so glad it was part of the night's line-up! ”

    “ If you're a new director (studying Intro to Directing in class) or an accomplished director (who's looking for a piece for a GLBTQ showcase) this is a smart choice. Why? Because it offers so much oppportunity for exploration -- tension, spectacle, use of stage space. Simpatico does more in this short play -- theatrically and emotionally -- that most playwrights in a full-length. Check it out. ”

    “ A gut-wrenching piece, exceptional in its crafting. With language that says everything in just a few words, relentless rhythm and an exchange of emotions that run a gamut I've rarely seen in such a short play. The audience for this at Seattle's Funhouse Anthology was riveted, hanging on every word. ”
