“
I really enjoyed the scope of this play and the characters and all their striving. The multi-generations moving from 1976 to this century in three different times touching on several timely issues felt historical and also mythic yet Bennett keeps the play grounded in American Naturalism. Well done. ”

“
It is the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center's pleasure to recommend Mardee Bennett and their play The Reapers On Woodbrook Avenue as a finalist for our 2016 National Playwrights Conference. The play rose through a competitive, anonymous, multileveled selection process that took nearly nine months to execute. As one of 54 finalists out of more than 1,450 submissions, the strength of its writing has allowed this work to prosper in such a competitive selection process. Our readers especially appreciated the deft ear for dialogue and admired the ambition and scope of this work. ”
