“ This piece blew my mind in all of the best ways. It was full of every ounce of heart you can muster and a story that truly felt like a window into the daily lives of everyday people. Rather than focusing on disabilities, it focused on the people, and their struggles with staying afloat in a world where anyone individual moment can hurdle you into personal and financial ruin. The story brought tears to my eye and launched so many conversations within my household. An INCREDIBLE show! ”

“ I love every second of this play, it has so much heart, so much vulnerability. Majok understands how to pry people apart in a way that's healing and cathartic to the reader. This play shakes you, and that's what I want my theatre to do. ”

“ There are experiences that you have as a reader that leave you humbled by the talent, humanity and obvious love given to text by the author. Majok has done that and so much more with COST OF LIVING. The play captures you from the very first monologue. The conversation flows so beautifully and the silence speak so much more than any measure of dialogue. To read the script is to read a virtuoso creating endlessly accessible dialogue and story. It's stunning and absolutely heartrending. Read this play and let it wash over you like a Satie miniature. What gorgeous writing. ”

“ After reading the script and having viewed the subsequent production at Manhattan Theatre Club, it became apparent that American theatre had welcome a titan into their ranks. The characters and situations of Majok's play are treated with a great deal of emotional depth and striking psychological complexity. Class and ableism are portrayed with a delicate balance. The highlight? It's likely you'll be in awe of the bathtub sequences between Eddie and Ani, where a poignant and hyper-sensual plinking of a 'piano' turns to on-the-edge-of-your-seat terror the next. Exciting stuff. ”
